Trapeze Learn To Fly The Trapeze - Brisbane

Experience first hand - the thrill of flying trapeze! The flying trapeze builds confidence and strength of both body and mind. The class is designed to help people over come their fear of heights and get a little taste of the circus. All this is performed with safety belts and through demonstration explanation and encouragement. Your 90-minute training session will start with a run through of the safety procedures and basic body positions before putting on your safety harness. Following a demonstration on the practice bar the new flyers get their first taste by hanging upside down from their knees and stretching their arms out behind them. You will then climb the ladder to the platform where you are attached to the safety ropes and swing on the high trapeze. After a small step and an enormous amount of courage the flyer is off! Swinging through the air with the greatest of ease. First up come the legs hook them onto the bar followed by the rush of "hands off". The flyer dismounts by laying back in the net or performing the back flip. After four practices in the air you will get to perform "The Catch". Arms outstretched hands grasping the catchers wrists. You will wear a safety belt and swing over a safety net at all times. The 90-minute workshops provide constant amusement for participants and spectators alike. This is a perfect way to keep the kids occupied over the school holidays!
