Clara’s narratives reflect contemporary circus as a movement pedagogical practice in relation to theories about aesthetic learning and in relation to the aims of a circus performer education in Copenhagen, Denmark. Furthermore her narratives provide a discussion of educational settings on the fringe of ordinary youth education. Firstly contemporary circus is presented as a counterculture to the traditional circus and secondly it describes how the development of contemporary circus as an art form influenced the establishment of contemporary circus schools. Body phenomenology and narrativity are the main theoretical and methodological inspirations for reflections about aesthetic learning processes taking point of departure in Clara as a case.
