Claudia's Angels Studio

Claudia's Angels Stúdió is a Hungarian school specializing in aerial acrobatics and dance , located in Debrecen , in eastern Hungary. Founded and directed by Tóth-Balázs Klaudia , it offers instruction combining aerial techniques, ground acrobatics, motor development, dance, and choreographic creation.

The establishment welcomes children from the age of 5 as well as adults, with courses adapted to beginners, experienced practitioners and students wishing to participate in competitions or shows.

Her teaching approach combines the enjoyment of practice , technical progression , self-confidence , and artistic expression . Students can discover several apparatus, including the aerial hammock , hoop , and silks , and then deepen their practice according to their abilities and aspirations.

A school founded by Tóth-Balázs Klaudia

Claudia's Angels Stúdió was created by Tóth-Balázs Klaudia , a teacher with over ten years of experience in teaching aerial disciplines.

His aim was to create a space in Debrecen where children and adults could discover the joy of movement, develop their abilities and achieve their artistic or sporting ambitions.

The school promotes a family-oriented and caring approach, where participants are encouraged to progress at their own pace.

The practice of aerial disciplines is viewed as a complete physical activity , but also as a means of personal expression and development of confidence .

The establishment welcomes a community of over 200 students and practitioners , united by their common interest in dance and aerial arts.

The aerial hammock: a first discovery from age 5

Aerial discipline instruction begins as early as age 5 with the Aerial Hammock, also known as aerial hammock .

This apparatus consists of a suspended flexible fabric , forming a loop in which the practitioner can position themselves, hang from it and perform various movements.

For younger children, the hammock is installed at a height of approximately 30 to 40 cm from the ground, adapted to their size and level.

This configuration allows you to experience the sensations of suspension while maintaining a close connection with the ground.

The first sessions focus on simple exercises in coordination , swinging , mobility and discovering body positions.

Children gradually learn to use the fabric to perform muscle strengthening movements, stretching , and small acrobatic figures.

The hammock also provides a fun support: students can sit in it, swing and discover different sensations of movement.

This approach helps to develop body awareness , balance , coordination and confidence in movement.

The goal is not to immediately seek technical performance, but to gradually build the foundations necessary for a more advanced practice.

Aerial hoop for ages 7 and up

From the age of 7 , students can discover the aerial hoop , in addition to the hammock.

The hoop is a suspended metal apparatus that allows for acrobatic positions, balances and choreographic sequences.

Children begin by learning the fundamental techniques: getting on the apparatus, positioning themselves correctly, maintaining suspensions and performing the first figures.

They gradually discover the possibilities offered by the hoop, including seated positions, suspensions and transitions between different movements.

The training also includes work on muscle strengthening , mobility and coordination .

Students learn to control their movements, use their supports, and develop their stability in space.

As they progress, they can tackle more complex figures and build sequences combining technique and artistic expression.

Aerial hoop plays an important role in the choreographic creations and shows presented by the school.

Aerial fabric and advanced techniques

Claudia's Angels Stúdió also offers instruction in aerial silks , called Aerial Silk.

The school has, in particular, fabrics approximately seven meters high, allowing the development of acts inspired by techniques used in circus performances.

Aerial silks requires significant mastery of strength , coordination and flexibility .

Students learn climbing techniques, suspensions, wraps and various acrobatic positions.

The progression then allows for tackling more complex transitions and building choreographic sequences.

The school considers aerial silks to be one of the most demanding disciplines in its program, but also a particularly interesting medium for artistic creation.

The movements can be associated with music and an aesthetic search, allowing technical figures to be transformed into true stage propositions.

The instruction is aimed at practitioners with the necessary skills for practice adapted to this apparatus.

Specialized apparatus: aerial cube and lollipop

In addition to traditional equipment, Claudia's Angels Stúdió uses several special apparatus during its advanced training and performances.

The aerial cube is a suspended geometric structure that allows for the creation of acrobatic positions and figures.

Several practitioners can move simultaneously on this apparatus, opening up the possibility of creating group acts.

The techniques used are similar to those of aerial hoop, which explains why prior experience on hoop is recommended.

The lollipop is an apparatus consisting of a hoop fixed to the top of a vertical structure resting on the ground.

It allows for the creation of aerial figures without the need for a suspension point on the ceiling.

This equipment is particularly useful for shows held in venues that do not have the infrastructure to install suspended apparatus.

The school also uses mobile aerial structures to set up hoops, silks or aerial loops at outdoor events.

This equipment expands creative possibilities and allows advanced students to discover different forms of aerial acrobatics.

A physical training program combining dance and acrobatics

Claudia's Angels' teaching is not limited to techniques performed on suspended apparatus.

The classes also include dance exercises, floor acrobatics , muscle strengthening and flexibility exercises.

These complementary disciplines help develop the physical qualities necessary for aerial practice.

Floor acrobatics helps to improve coordination , stability and movement control .

Dance exercises promote a sense of rhythm , fluidity , and the ability to associate movements with music.

Physical preparation helps to strengthen the muscle groups used during suspensions and acrobatic maneuvers.

Stretching and mobility exercises help to develop range of motion.

This holistic approach allows students to gradually build better control of their bodies, both on the ground and in the air.

Classes adapted for children

Claudia's Angels organizes its activities according to the age and level of the children.

The youngest children discover the fundamentals of movement through fun exercises.

The sessions emphasize attention , coordination , and the gradual discovery of techniques.

From the age of 7 , instruction can incorporate aerial hoop and more elaborate exercises.

More experienced students develop their technical skills and can participate in advanced training activities.

The school offers several possible study paths.

• Some children choose to practice aerial disciplines as a leisure activity , without the goal of competition.
• Others wish to further develop their technique in order to participate in contests and competitions .
• Others prioritize the artistic dimension , with the preparation of choreographies and shows.

The institution values these different approaches and seeks to enable everyone to progress according to their objectives.

Courses for adults

Claudia's Angels also offers aerial acrobatics sessions for adults .

Participants can practice with hoop , silks or aerial hammock , according to their preferences and level.

These disciplines constitute complete physical activities, engaging in particular the arms , shoulders , trunk and stabilizing muscles .

They help to develop strength , muscular endurance , flexibility and coordination .

The school offers a flexible organization, allowing adults to choose one or more disciplines.

A practitioner can thus combine the hoop and the fabric, combine the hammock with the hoop or discover all three apparatus.

This freedom allows the practice to be adapted to each individual's desires, abilities, and objectives.

The courses can cater to very different motivations: discovering an original activity, improving physical fitness, technical progress or preparing for competition.

A progression from leisure to competition

One of the special features of Claudia's Angels is the possibility of following different training paths .

The school offers beginner , advanced and competitive groups.

• Beginners discover the basics of aerial disciplines and develop the physical abilities necessary for their practice.
• The advanced groups allow students to deepen their techniques and work on more complex figures.
• The competition groups benefit from preparation geared towards the requirements of competitions and artistic presentations.

This organization allows motivated students to progress to a higher technical level, while maintaining an offering intended for recreational practice.

The school also places particular importance on the construction of choreographies and the presentation of movements in front of an audience.

A teaching approach that is attentive to safety

Safety is a central element of Claudia's Angels' teaching.

The classes are led by qualified teachers and use thick landing mats .

The level of difficulty is adapted to the age and skill level of the participants.

The youngest begin with floor exercises and low-height suspensions before gradually moving on to aerial techniques.

This progression helps develop the physical abilities and confidence necessary to perform the movements.

The school also emphasizes the importance of technical fundamentals .

Students learn to control their positions, to use the equipment correctly, and to follow training instructions.

Physical preparation, warm-up and coordination exercises all contribute to this approach.

The goal is to allow practitioners to discover aerial disciplines in a structured environment adapted to their abilities.

Holiday camps for children

Claudia's Angels organizes summer workshops dedicated to aerial acrobatics, dance and body development.

These courses take the form of day activities, allowing children to participate in several sessions during school holidays.

The program includes daily training, stretching exercises, dance, and various group activities.

The school organizes participants into several groups based on age and skill level.

• Children aged 4 to 6 discover fundamental movements through playful activities and adapted first aerial experiences.
• Children aged 6 to 8 deepen their understanding of the basics of aerial disciplines, dance and mobility.
• Children aged 8 to 10 work on more advanced elements and discover the first techniques of choreographic creation.
• Young people aged 10 to 14 benefit from more in-depth technical training, with exercises to prepare them for shows.

A specific group is also planned for experienced competitors , with an intensive preparation program.

The camps include recreational activities and group time, allowing children to share an experience combining sport, creativity and conviviality.

Shows and public performances

Claudia's Angels develops an artistic activity in addition to its teaching.

The school offers shows and demonstrations of aerial acrobatics at various events.

His artists can perform at festivals, sporting events, corporate events, weddings and family celebrations.

Among the events in which the school indicates it has participated are Campus Fesztivál and Galiba Gyermekfesztivál .

The performances may involve aerial hoop, silks, lollipop and various mobile structures.

This activity allows us to showcase the technical and artistic skills developed during training.

It also offers advanced students the opportunity to discover the demands of the stage, including choreographic preparation, presence in front of an audience, and collective coordination.

A partner of the Grand Circus of Budapest

Claudia's Angels also has an official partnership with Fővárosi Nagycirkusz , the Grand Circus of Budapest.

This institution is one of the important places of the Hungarian circus tradition.

This partnership places the school within a broader artistic environment, in relation to professional circus practices.

It also demonstrates Claudia's Angels' interest in aerial disciplines presented in circus shows.

The school thus combines its local educational activity with an opening towards the world of entertainment and circus arts.

Circus-themed entertainment and birthday parties

In addition to regular classes and shows, Claudia's Angels offers entertainment for children.

The establishment organizes birthday parties, allowing participants to discover aerial disciplines in a festive setting.

These events provide an opportunity to try out hammocks, hoops, and various movement activities.

They also allow children who do not necessarily attend regular school classes to discover the world of aerial arts.

The supervision is tailored to the participants and the activities offered.

These activities help to make circus disciplines more accessible and to raise awareness of the school among families in Debrecen and the surrounding area.

A community founded on trust and the joy of practicing

Claudia's Angels' philosophy is based on creating a welcoming collective environment .

The school presents itself as a community in which each participant can find their place, whether they wish to practice for pleasure, develop their physical abilities or prepare for shows and competitions.

Personal development plays an important role in this approach.

Students are encouraged to discover their potential, gradually overcome their difficulties, and develop their confidence.

The artistic dimension also helps to promote creativity and personal expression .

Group activities, choreography and performances help to strengthen the bonds between participants.

This approach makes it possible to combine the physical benefits of aerial disciplines with an enriching human and artistic experience.

An active school in the Hungarian aerial arts scene

Claudia's Angels Stúdió is an important structure for the practice of aerial disciplines in Debrecen .

Thanks to its teaching accessible from age 5 , its courses for adults and its advanced groups, it offers continuity between the discovery of the circus, regular practice and artistic preparation.

The diversity of its apparatus, including the hammock , hoop , silks , aerial cube and lollipop , allows students to discover several forms of aerial acrobatics.
