A bar hanging from two ropes, but 20 feet in the air (don’t worry… there’s a net!) The flyer, holding the bar, jumps from a platform, swings through the air with the option for tricks and poses. Progressions include releasing and re-catching the bar, and being caught by a "catcher" on a second trapeze spaced perfectly across from it. Flyers fall into a net below, dismount, and get ready to fly all over again! NECCA offers drop-in classes for various circus classes throughout the session. Students can reserve their spot ahead of time on our website or show up 15 minutes early to class to register in person. (Note: we cannot guarantee space in the class if you do not pre-register.) Age 7 and up.
