Hovey Burgess pedagogie (Circus)

The Hovey Burgess pedagogy divides circus skills into 3 categories, each with 3 skill groupings.

H. Burgess has been known to compare his system to Newton's third law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Vaulting is concerned with action. Juggling is concerned with reaction, and equilibrium is the intersection of action and reaction.
