The Good Stuff
Aerial silks
Aerial silks is a clear strength, with reviewers describing patient instruction, new routines and visible gains in flexibility, confidence and strength.
Active classes
One parent found the small classes kept children active rather than waiting for turns, with more strength conditioning than a previous gymnastics school.
Training space
Reviewers describe a bright, clean studio with soft carpet, a roughly 7-metre height and many rigging points for aerial work.
Parent comfort
Parents can stay and watch, with a comfortable waiting area that one reviewer said also worked well for getting some work done.
Camps and shows
Camps include several workshops and age-group planning, while concerts and smaller shows give students a chance to perform what they have learned.
Helpful reception
Front-desk staff are repeatedly described as welcoming and responsive, and one visitor appreciated help arranging parking.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check supervision. Before booking a young child’s trial, ask who will supervise the class throughout; one parent reported the trainer left to teach older children.
Ask about coaches. If consistent instruction matters, ask whether the same coach leads each week, as one parent flagged coach stability as an improvement area.
Plan parking. Ask reception about parking arrangements before arriving; a visitor specifically valued the dedicated help with parking.
Stay onsite. Parents are welcome to watch, and the waiting area is comfortable enough for working while children practise.
Try a class. A trial class was praised for its friendly atmosphere and quality, so it can be a useful way to test the fit before committing.

Popular Mentions
Trapeze class
A first-time visitor described a thorough warm-up and useful technique advice during the trapeze class.
Contortion sessions
One parent specifically mentioned contortion sessions alongside aerial classes as part of a child’s training.
Spring camp
The spring camp introduced children to aerial silks, hoops and jumps in a clean, friendly setting.

Common Concerns
Pulley gap
One reviewer noted there is no 4:1 pulley system, which they considered important for straps and some other aerial disciplines.
Coach continuity
A parent said having the same coach every week could be improved, although the school was already working on it for that class.

The Bottom Line
Dubai Circus School in Al Quoz gives children, teens and adults a more varied route into fitness than standard gymnastics. The clearest draws in the reviews are aerial silks, acrobatics and trapeze, with classes built around physical skills rather than long waits for a turn. Parents repeatedly describe coaches who adjust activities to individual ability and help children progress while keeping the mood encouraging rather than intensely competitive.
The studio is described as bright, clean and spacious, with soft carpet, roughly 7-metre height and many rigging points. Parents can stay and watch, and the waiting area is comfortable enough to work from. Front-desk staff are often praised for being responsive, and one visitor appreciated help arranging parking.
Camps are another practical option: reviews mention age-group planning, several workshops across the day and strong teacher-to-student ratios. Concerts and smaller shows also let students perform. There are a couple of points to check first.
One reviewer missed a 4:1 pulley system for straps and some aerial work, while another wanted more consistency in weekly coaching. A separate trial-class account described poor supervision of a young child, so ask exactly who will teach and supervise before paying for a trial. No customer-reported prices were provided.
