At the heart of our School’s
motivation is a desire for greater health: physically, mentally
and spiritually. The Flying Trapeze is a wonderful tool
for learning and practicing many vital elements of health
and wellness. Conditioning, body awareness, timing, trust,
relaxation, and a belief in one’s ability to do more
than one imagined, are just a few of the benefits of flying.
Many of our clients, inspired by the joy
and challenge of flying, set a new course of commitment
to health and happiness in their lives. Often, our students
describe improvement in focus, self-esteem, strength, mood,
patience, empowerment, sleep patterns, and weight loss.
Added benefit comes from the community
spirit shared by our students. Sharing a passion for something
magical inevitably brings people closer and lifts their
spirits.
Classes in static trapeze,
Spanish web, trampoline (when available) and silks are great
for building overall strength and coordination. They are
also invaluable for learning improved technique and form.
There are many activities that serve as
excellent cross-training for flying and other acrobatics.
Anusara Yoga and rock climbing are excellent core strengtheners
and are wonderful for helping you achieve the balance and
flexibility central to masterful flying. Check out our links
page for ideas on other activities that will benefit your
health and your flying.
