All flying trapeze classes start with a quick warm up and a stretch, followed by our "ground school" lesson, where we teach you the trick you will do on a low practice bar. Then everyone is fitted with a safety harness, and the rest of the class is spent doing the flying trapeze.
Flying trapeze classes have a minimum of 3 students, and a maximum of 10.
Flying Trapeze - Tricks & Catching
We recommend this class for first-time flyers.
Tricks & Catching classes start the same as all of our other classes, but end with a round or two (depending on class size) of catching, where everyone who is ready is given the opportunity to do their trick and then be caught and swing with one of our instructors. Students who are not ready to attempt the catch will continue to work on their trick, so they will still get the same amount of turns.
Flying Trapeze - Skill Development
Skill Development classes do not have catching. If a student masters their trick before the end of the 2-hour class, we will teach them a new trick. This is a great class for those who want to focus on perfecting a trickier skill that might not be ready for a catch.

Each class will end with a few conditioning and stretching exercises to help develop the strength, flexibility, and body awareness required to excel at aerial arts.
Straps (Ages 13+)
Aerial straps are two thick straps of materials with loops to hang from. This apparatus is great for those who are—or want to get—circus strong! Straps students will learn tricks and conditioning exercises to build the muscle necessary to master strength-based skills.

Trampolines are a great way to build body awareness in the air. Classes will teach various ways of flipping and twisting, and will focus on building the control that will help us to learn how to flip—and land—safely and consistently.
Partner Acrobatics (Ages 6–96)
Partner acrobatics teaches counterbalancing and holding each other through sequences of positions. Our partner acro classes are primarily focused on hand-to-hand and standing skills, rather than acro yoga or L-basing partner acrobatics. This class is appropriate for all levels, including beginners.
Please note that coming with a partner is recommended for this class.
L based Partner Acro (Ages 6–96)
This partner acrobatics class focuses on "L-basing," where one partner — the base, or porter — lies on their back, and the second partner "flies" on top of them. The base and flyer will work together in a safe environment to create a flowing sequence of acrobatic positions. Partner acro helps to develop strength, confidence, flexibility, balance, and communication.
