Professional Training for High School Students
Mon–Fri 9:00 AM–12:00 PM (15–18 hrs/week coached)
September–June (full academic year)
~$12,000/year (~$1,200/month × 10 months)
Full year minimum
Train alongside Mastery students every morning in the same core curriculum — specialty coaching, handstands, tumbling, strength & mobility. Afternoons are yours for academics.
This isn't a watered-down version of Mastery. The morning training is identical. The difference is that you're still completing high school, so your afternoons are dedicated to your education.
High-speed Wi-Fi and dedicated study space available on-site.
All students get unlimited self-training access.
High school students ready to commit to professional-level training while completing their education.
If you're still in school — even if you're 18 — this is your program. If you have a diploma or GED, see Mastery in Circus Arts.
Mastery Prep and Performance Track are parallel paths, not sequential. Mastery Prep means restructuring your life around training. Performance Track fits around a normal school schedule.
Enrollment in an accredited high school program is required. We recommend these online/virtual options that work well with morning training:
