Circus Training and Creation Space

Introducing Motion Chapel, a new arts organisation dedicated to the Circus Arts in County Roscommon, Ireland.

Housed in an old monastery on three acres of land, we are excited to announce our plans for becoming another dot on the map of Irish and International Circus, a destination for training and research right in the heartlands of Ireland.

Reach out to us about residency, hiring the space, running seminars, or any other question you may have!
