Esh Circus Arts, which has taught trapeze and juggling at its 6,000-square-foot main building at 44 Park St. for more than a decade, is adding a satellite studio in former storage space at 38 Alston St., a few minutes' walk from the East Somerville T stop. Adult sessions begin Aug. 24 and kids' classes start Sept. 14.
