$45 for Two-Hour Flying-Trapeze Lesson (Up to a $90 Value)
During beginner-friendly lessons, students start on the ground and work their way up to the platforms under the tutelage of experienced instructors. Along with teaching new skills and showy tricks, the two-hour class grants fledgling flyers the opportunity to be caught in midair over a giant net. Budding performers ages 6 and older should come garbed in active wear and must wear socks or have feet made of wool. The class schedule lets students stretch their wings five days a week as they swing, secured in a safety harness.
Trapeze Austin’s rates fluctuate throughout the week. Though Trapeze Austin sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

About Trapeze Texas

Students will always be attached to a safety belt or safety lines and harness.
