TRAPEZE
6 years old - 15Â years old
A trapeze is a horizontal bar that is hung by ropes from either one or two rig points.
​
It is an aerial apparatus commonly found in circus performances. Trapeze acts can be static, spinning, swinging, or flying, and may be performed solo or multiple acts.
​
Here at Pole Attack, we perform static or spinning trapeze, which is either known as 'static trapeze' or 'dance trapeze'.
​
Static trapeze is rigged at two points with horizontal ropes extending to the ceiling support
​
Dance trapeze (also known as single-point trapeze) refers to a trapeze commonly used in aerial dance. The ropes of the trapeze are both attached to a single swivel, allowing the trapeze to spin easily.
You wear comfortable-fitting clothing that covers the armpits and knees. Leggings or yoga pants are a great choice for your legs.
