With the exception of that one remarkably talented walrus, acrobats tend to be fairly trim. Today's Groupon lets you in on their fitness secret with a two-hour trapeze class from Emerald City Trapeze Arts for $30 (an up to $70 value). With classes scheduled every day of the week and weekend, fly in on your own time and experience the blissful perspective of someone no longer glued to the surly bonds of earth.
Few things in this life outside of giant dads can provide adults with the sky-splitting thrill of being flung through the air, and the flying trapeze is one of those things. Whether you've been trapezing since birth or are brand-new to the ancient aerial craft, Emerald City's instructors will welcome you with dependably sturdy arms. Your expertly guided and completely safe trapeze adventure begins with a succinct stretching session before you develop your balancing skills on a practice bar. From there, you'll add the basics of proper take-offs, swinging, and body positioning to your acrobatic tool belt. Learn at your own pace and obtain new techniques with ample demonstrations by the circus-grade instructors. When you're ready, you'll be able to leap through the air and catch their hands in mid-air—proving to your doubting third-grade gym teacher that you can in fact trapeze with ease.
Soaring to and fro will give you an energizing physical workout to go with the airborne experiences you've daydreamed and nightdreamed about since childhood. Join the vaunted company of dancing bears and moustachioed iron-women and let your inner circus star take literal flight with today's Groupon.

While writing a review is made difficult by the lack of Wi-Fi in mid-air, a trio of Yelpers give Emerald City Trapeze Arts a perfect five stars:
Groupon Says
DIY Superpowers
Learning to fly on the trapeze is a lot like gaining a superhero's power, but it's not the only DIY superpower. Here are other superpowers you can replicate at home:
X-Ray Vision: Bring your own full-sized x-ray machine everywhere and snap x-rays of whatever you wish to see through. Initially, you'll have to develop the photos and won't be able to instantly see inside things, but after a few months of exposure to the machine's high-speed electron beams, you'll soon be able to see only through things.
Freeze Breath: Everyone knows you're not supposed to swallow liquid nitrogen, but did you know that you can, in fact, swallow liquid nitrogen? Doing so gives your exhalations the power to freeze anything within your local breath-radius, but it makes intimacy more difficult, or easier.
Knowledge of State Capitals: A little time spent with an atlas can give you a "superpower" that amazes nephews and nieces and can help you out if someone ever asks you about the state capitals.
