Leap Trapeze

Great instructors who teach to each individual’s ability level. Fun and non-​intimidating. A little pricey, but worth it… especially since the number of students isn’t very large per class (i.e. more flying time).

This place is awesome. The instructors are really encouraging and the experience is so much fun! I went on a weekend with a friend, and was the only person who had never flown before. That made the class flow pretty well though, with everyone rotating through quickly, and everyone was really supportive. With a knee hang & catch down, it’s time to reserve another class and learn something new!
(Note: the scariest part of the whole experience is climbing the ladder. Once you get up that, which can get shaky in the wind, you’re golden.)

Leap Trapeze is like my home, I would live there if I could. The experience of flying on the trapeze is one of the most empowering and freeing things you can do for yourself. And Leap has some of the most amazing people I know teaching.
If it is your first time flying, you are in for a treat! And if you are training for the circus, you are in luck, because Kaz and Shain are pros, some of the best in the world!
This is a great place to host a party or corporate event as well. Talk about an exclusive and fun event!

This is so much fun! I never thought I would be able to do something like this and was terrified my first time. Once I tried it the first time, I was hooked. Now I go fly as often as possible! Shane and Kaz are great teachers and are so much fun! Do it!

If you have a bucket list and flying trapeze is not on it, add it now and make that leap of faith. There is nothing quite like it, and whether you take one lesson or a season of workshops you will be a lifelong fan of trapeze. The skill and daring of the staff and the advanced students is simply amazing. All you want to do is improve.
The staff is kind and respectful to students of any level. They want you to be your best with the end goal of surprising yourself by doing something you never thought you could do.
It is an incredible experience!

As I flew through the air with the greatest of ease… I kept my eyes closed because I was so afraid of plummeting to my death… well, just the first time. I had no need to worry though because I was in excellent hands!
My mom, sister, and I drove down from Charleston, and this was definitely worth the weekend trip we turned it into! Classes range from beginners, like me, to the more experienced. While my fellow newbies and I were being instructed, the pros warmed up on the swings above us. At first I was a little intimidated, but throughout the night they gave me a lot of tips to make things easier, and they gave me plenty of pats on the back! (I’m always a sucker for a gold star…)
The first jump is the hardest (and I’m pretty sure my instructor thought I was going to pass out) but she was very patient with me and helped coax me off of the platform without shoving me. Before I knew it, I was flipping and swinging with the best of them… well, maybe not the best, but I had such a fun time that I’d definitely go back!
The instructors are fantastic– very encouraging and patient. They really do all of the work, and you’re just along for the ride.
All ages are welcome. Classes are $ 40 and last 2 hours. If you love it, you can enroll in their workshops & take 10 classes with a grand finale show at the end to show off your new skillz.
Sincerely,
Amateur lady of the flying trapeze
