Résumé :
Circus arts has seen rapid growth over the past thirty years, and artists require a unique combination of technical, physical, and artistic abilities with a performance schedule and culture that is distinct from sport. Yet, the development of elite circus artists continues to rely on sport-based and traditional circus training methods. Research into critical performance and health factors in a circus student-artist context would provide valuable insight for the development of modern circus training and injury prevention strategies. The aim of this manuscript-style dissertation is to characterize physical, physiological, and psychological factors in a high-performance circus training environment.
