I see what you mean, what country are you in? If you dont mind me asking!! I do aerials and acro too. Maybe you could email the circus school and ask? They should be able to give you a pretty good idea of what standard ect. that they want you at?

@ACHEEWW None yet. I'd like to do something with gymnastics and aerial - there's no circus school in my country. I'm doing gymnastics, I have to wait until I finish my current school, until I go to the circus one (not NICA, Circus Space or Circomedia in England). The only thing is that they say that there's no academic requirements, but I need to have some experience with dance, performing or gymnastics. I can't really say what in this case that "some" means though...

@333Florence333 Give it your best go:) What is your speciality?

[333Florence333]

@ACHEEWW Thank you. Hopefully, I'll be good enough by then - my parents give me only one chance. If I won't get there by the first try, I will have to stay in my contry and go to University... But I want to work in a circus!

@333Florence333 I started when I was 14. I think it just depends on the amount of training you do and how much dedication and effort you put into it:)

I started gymnastics at age of 16, just to be an circus artists. Do you think that when I finish Secondary School, I'll be ready for it? Or is it this kind of thing that I'd have to start at a very yound age and it's too late for me?
