Eluciole comes from the French word for firefly, named after the many beautiful light bugs that illuminate the forest around the circus centre in the evening, gifting their magical faerie light to the centre and remind us that we can too fly high and shine our light. And so is our small wonderful circus centre located in Auroville, India, Founded in 2012 by Kalou

​

Eluciole circus aims to spread the joy and magic of circus arts to the children of Auroville.

Our belief is that in training by harmonizing the mental and physical of the human being by working on the motor- coordination skills, and to give a way for young people to channel their energy.
