Question 1

I've never done flying trapeze — what should I start with?

Accepted Answer

Welcome! Get ready to have a blast! First-time students can start small with a one-hour express class where they learn basic commands, how to take off with assistance, and their first trick. We'll set you up with a safety harness and go over everything you need to know in a short ground-school orientation.

All students learn a knee hang as their first trick. Practice in an express class, or go across to a catcher in a two-hour class. It's not uncommon for students to learn their first trick and get caught in a single class.

Question 2

What should I bring to class?

Accepted Answer

All students under 14 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. All students are encouraged to wear tight athletic clothing, suitable for summer temperatures and outside activity, and a water bottle. First-time students hang from their knee pits, so pants or knee sleeves are encouraged.

Circus Vision supplies all safety equipment.

You may also bring to class:
Palm guards or dowels
Wrist wraps or tape
Knee sleeves
Sunscreen, hats, or other sun protection

Question 3

Can I book a private class?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We offer private classes for single students, pairs, or groups for one or two-hour sessions. Contact us at circus.vision.collective@gmail.com to arrange booking.

Question 4

Do you offer kids' classes?

Accepted Answer

Our trapeze classes are suitable for students ages 5 and up! However, we offer one-week camps for kids and teens throughout the season. Join our mailing list to keep up with class openings and camp registration.

Question 5

Is flying trapeze safe?

Accepted Answer

No form of circus, trapeze, or aerial art is inherently safe or free of risk. All first-time students wear a safety harness at all times, climb our ladder with the help if an ascending device, and are encouraged to fly at their own pace.

We highly encourage students and their parents or guardians to thoroughly read through our safety waiver and decide for themselves the level of risk they're willing to accept. All Circus Vision instructors are trained in basic first aid and CPR.

Question 6

Do you take walk-ins?

Accepted Answer

We aren't accepting walk-in students at this time. Please book your classes in advance, so you don't miss out! All trapeze classes run on a three-person minimum.

Question 7

What are your refund and cancellation policies?

Accepted Answer

All class purchases are non-refundable but may be transferred to future classes in the event of illness or emergency as long as students, parents, or guardians notify their instructor by email at least 24 hours before class.

No-show bookings are not eligible for refunds.

Class cancellations are subject to wind and weather conditions and a three-student minimum. Classes that don't meet the minimum sign-up requirement will be cancelled two hours before the start of class. Students will be notified via email, and class purchases will be returned as a class credit or reassigned to future dates.
