Adult Flying Trapeze

The Toronto School of Circus Arts is one of only three schools in Canada to offer flying trapeze instruction. This exciting, rewarding apparatus is one of the school’s most popular classes, and offers a thrilling experience to students of all levels.

Flyers start by climbing up to the platform 28 feet above the ground, where a professional instructor is always on hand. Once they are harnessed into the safety mechanism, they are instructed to grab the trapeze bar and then swing out to execute a mid-air maneuver. They are then coached to release the bar and land in the safety net, or may add further challenge by being caught by a professional catcher swinging on an adjacent bar. No flying trapeze is ever performed without a safety net.
