If you’ve never tried aerial arts before then we’d recommend trapeze as a great starting point for building the strength that aerials require. The bar gives you a place to stop for a rest, and there are some fun moves we can try with the ropes too!
“Don’t let the fear of falling keep you from flying”
The two main disciplines in trapeze are swinging and static. Our classes are in static trapeze, which means we let it hang straight down without swinging on it.
We focus on making shapes and moving through sequences, gradually building your skills as you get stronger and more confident. But our classes will also help you build relevant strength and knowledge to give you a headstart if you ever decided to give flying trapeze a go in the future.
People are often surprised by how much they achieve in their first trapeze session. So if you’re not sure if you’ll have enough strength for it, why not just come down and give it a go? We’re very friendly, we have a lot of fun, and you might just surprise yourself along the way!

Read below to find out more about our group private tuition sessions.
Solo private tuition
You can book a solo private tuition session in trapeze.
Solo private tuition is a great opportunity to focus on your technique, which often leads to faster progress and a better understanding of the skills you’re learning.

Small group private tuition
You can book a small group private tuition session in trapeze. These are for up to three people.
Small group private tuition is a great opportunity to share the fun (and the cost) of private tuition while still benefitting from the extra attention that your instructor can give you in a smaller group.
Head to our private tuition page to find out more (including prices) or to request a booking.
Large group private tuition
Our large group private tuition sessions are for up to six people. We’re not currently able to offer these for trapeze but we’re working on it. In the meantime you can book a small group session for trapeze, or a large group session for aerial silks.
Large group private tuition is great if you love the sound of a group class but you’re a bit nervous about mixing with people you don’t know. This way you get to choose your own classmates and you can book your session at a time that suits you (subject to studio availability).
A large group private tuition session is also a great way to celebrate a birthday or any other special occasion!
Head to our private tuition page to find out more (including prices) or to request a booking.
Be aware that what everyone gets out of the session will depend on their own age and also the age range in the group. If you’re not sure whether a private tuition session is right for you or someone you’d like to book for then please feel free to email us or give us a call.

Did you know…
… the leotard took its name from French trapeze artist Jules Léotard. Monsieur Leotard was a pioneer in the circus world, developing the art of flying trapeze using his father’s swimming pool as a substitute for a safety net. The skin-tight garment was his signature attire.
