Trapeze

Trapeze

Trapeze is the ballet of the air, the fundamental form on which all others are based. Aloft highly recommends (but does not require) beginning your training with at least one session of trapeze classes to build your upper-body, learn basic aerial vocabulary and hone your aerial awareness. Aloft teaches mainly static trapeze technique, but classes sometimes incorporate single-point/dance trapezes.

In Trapeze One, you will learn essential body positioning and technique, as well as basic (but exciting) skills such as knee and ankle hangs, beats, pullovers and much more. You will be hanging upside down by the end of your first class! Trapeze I sessions are 8 weeks long: $200/session.

Intermediate and advanced classes (Trapeze 2-4) progress with rope work, creative transitions and advanced drops and hangs, like toes and heels. Each class will challenge you, even after years of training! Trapeze II-IV classes are taught in 8 week sessions: $220/session.

Please note that a session does not equal a level--each level is completed only when a specific skill set is mastered. It can take 2 or more sessions to move up to the next level. Students must receive instructors permission to move to the next level.
