Circus Center is introducing a new model for private lessons. Moving forward, coaches will no longer be employed or paid by Circus Center for private lessons. Instead, students will engage and compensate coaches directly.

How It Works

Booking a Private Lesson:
Private training sessions, called Private Points, are available at $30/hour (up to 2 students for one point, one coach) or $60/hour (up to 4 students for two points, one coach), booked through your instructor.
Students must book with an approved coach from our verified list. (Current Circus Center staff coaches are on the approved list, and alumni may request to be included.)
No group sessions larger than 4 students.  We would be happy to create a regular class or a workshop with your coach for larger groups. 

How to Book

Coordinate date and time with your instructor, who will book the lesson in Momence.
Complete the booking by paying for the point rental once the Front Desk Team connects with you.  Your coach may also book and pay for the point directly and you can reimburse them.
 

On the Day of Your Lesson

Both the student and coach must check in at the front desk or with the Open Gym Facilitator before using the space.
Staff will confirm the booking and coach approval before allowing access.
Coaches are considered independent users, not staff, and must follow general user policies—no staff privileges apply.

Important Notes

Payment & Scheduling: Students are responsible for handling payments and scheduling directly with their coach. Circus Center will not process coach payments or manage their schedules.
Coach Verification: If a coach is not approved, the Private Point cannot be used.
Availability: Private Points are subject to availability—specific equipment or time slots are not guaranteed.
For any questions, please contact the School Administrator or Executive Director.
