The Performer's diary is a tool for guided reflection throughout the whole project. Each exchange provides new pages to add and helps to map the progress of participants during the duration of the project (two years). In the end it will also help participants to fill out their YouthPasses and mark their achievments. We are using the adjusted versions of original materials from Portfolio performera*ky (Performer's portfolio), project from our partner circus organisation - Cirkulárium - supported by the NPO.

The translation into English, adjustments of the original sheets and additions are implemented as a part of CIRKbeing project.

The self-development and self-care is a big part of CIRKbeing project. The time and space for selfregulation, relaxation, connection, grounding and breathwork is provided in scheduled time windows - soul-care showers. Sessions are planned according to the week schedule and activities and is focusing on work with emotions, breath, stress and body awareness. 

What were the main topics?
• grounding and mental stability
• relaxation of the nervous system
• mindfullnes and presence
• stress release

One of the main outcomes of the whole project is a deck of First Aid Kit CARDS that are developed and created by participants. As the range of tools for selfrgulation and somatic exercises is growing, participants are building their library for diverse life situation. The idea for FAK CARDS is to connect the useful exercises with the fun practise - circus. The final version for this project will be realised by the end of the project in Brno (CZ) in September 2026.
