Flying trapeze is more than just an exciting activity; it offers a wide range of physical and mental benefits. Whether you’re trying it for the first time or returning to build your skills, the benefits of flying trapeze go far beyond just a cool thing to try.

At Above and Beyond Circus, our Bristol flying trapeze classes are designed to help you grow in confidence while having fun.

Physical Benefits of flying trapeze

Flying trapeze helps improve:

• Strength and control
• Coordination and timing
• Body awareness
• Overall fitness

It’s a full-body workout that doesn’t feel like traditional exercise!

Above & Beyond Circus pride themselves on excellent instructors who help participants build strength and control over time and coach them on when to move, how to move and all the details that make flying possible. We see students go from not being able to lift their legs to the bar to completing multiple different tricks to an audience!

Mental Benefits of flying trapeze

Beyond the physical, flying trapeze also supports:

• Confidence building
• Focus and concentration
• Overcoming fear
• A sense of achievement

Stepping off the platform is as much a mental challenge as it is physical. Above and Beyond Circus pride ourselves on our compassionate and gentle approach to teaching flying trapeze. We facilitate our participants to overcome their fears and build their confidence without pushing them too far or making them to do anything they don’t want to do!

Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone

Trying flying trapeze encourages you to:

• Take on new challenges
• Push personal boundaries
• Build resilience

We all need to push ourselves, and at Above and Beyond Circus you can do that in a safe and controlled way!

Safety is at the heart of everything we do!

Fun and Social Experience

One of the biggest benefits is simple: it’s fun.

You’ll share the experience with others, celebrate progress, and enjoy a supportive, positive environment. Our students love hanging out with us and each other. We are so pleased with the community we have built!

Still not sure – What the expect at your first flying trapeze class!
