Static Trapeze
Static trapeze is a great introduction to the world of aerial arts. One of the oldest circus apparatuses was invented in 1859 by a French Performer named Jules Leotard. The word trapeze comes from the Latin word trapezium, a geometrical four-sided figure that is mimicked by the shape made by the ceiling, ropes, and bar in a trapeze.
​
Trapeze gives you a solid foundation for many other disciplines. Static trapeze features a bar suspended in the air by two ropes. Unlike in flying trapeze and dance trapeze the bar stays mainly in place.
​
The Classic piece of circus apparatus provides a stable bar for you to build strength and confidence, especially with going upside down. Along with a building on flexibility.
​
Static trapeze is one of the most accessible disciplines in circus. By hanging the trapeze close to the ground, the aerialist can take advantage of the floor to kick up to the bar. It also offers a place to sit if you need a break. Most people are able to do a few poses on their very first day. As the students build strength and flexibility they learn increasingly impressive moves, rolls and drops.
​
Building fitness and strength-training you’ll learn to create mesmerising displays around a bar hung above the ground.
Similar to Aerial Hoop in some ways Static Trapeze will definitely aid in transferring skills over to other apparatus as well.
Static Trapeze is perfect for everyBODY who wants to dip their toes into the world of Aerial Fitness.
