Take your trapeze skills to new heights with the Level 3 Flying Trapeze workshop in sunny Santa Monica. Join a supportive community and soar with advanced techniques in this unforgettable outdoor experience.
Ages 14+ • Must have an independent take off
Join an exhilarating Level 3 flying trapeze session, where advanced flyers work towards specific goals in a supportive community. Experience the thrill of soaring through the air while honing your skills. This unique blend of sport and performance art promises fun, personal growth, and unforgettable memories. Happy flying!
Level 3 flying allows students work toward specific goals and skills while enjoying the company of other advanced skills flyers. Please note that we do not teach tricks in Level 3 sessions, so if you are not a regular flyer, choose a regular all level Flying session.
Socks that protect the toes are required, so socks that separate the toes or slip off your feet easily are not permitted. We recommend wearing snug fitting athletic clothing. Yoga/running pants, tights, or leggings that cover the back of the knees will protect your skin during the knee hang trick. The safety belt will be worn around your waist, so wear a regular length (vs. crop or cutoff) T-shirt or athletic top. Loose, baggy clothing will get in your way and things like hard hair clips and jewelry cannot be worn while flying.
Students are required to have completed level 2 in the logbook.
Flying trapeze is an exciting and challenging activity. Part sport and part performance art, it provides opportunities for fun, community, and growth. Happy Flying!
