More than 50 children had the chance to learn circus tricks such as trapeze, trampoline and tightrope at a children's camp.

The Circus Camp organised by Kidz du Soleil and sponsored by Young Post and the Hong Kong Football Club, offered a chance for children to try their hand at performing in a circus.

Founder of Kidz du Soleil Ron Pascoe has been teaching circus skills and flying trapeze for a decade.

He started his flying trapeze school in Florida, United States and has travelled along the East Coast of the US running circus camps.

The more than 50 students who took part in the three-day training camp were selected from over 100 applicants.

Five-year-old participant Aneesa Fiaz said she enjoyed the flying trapeze the most as it was very exciting.

Her mother said it was rare for children to get an opportunity to take part in a circus.
