As of December 12, 2024 Miami Flying Trapeze is closed indefinitely. Gaby and I would like to thank all who became part of our family. I took on a role of the grumpy old coach who was impossible to please. But it worked, because you all have achieved more than you ever thought you could. I'm so proud of each of you. Gaby is proud of each of you. We love you and you made this fight worth it. Nearly all of you know we were fighting to stay open. We vilified the government and collectively thought, "who do they think they are?" But I was wrong. We can't look at the government as the enemy. The court made their decision and we lost. We have to respect our government and you shouldn't make my mistake unless you're willing to go down with the ship. I took my character too far. I became my character and that caused us to lose. I failed you all and I'm sorry. This is my boat, and I'm going down with it. But for you, worth it. All of you, worth it. The website will be up for a bit longer, but all classes are cancelled. We would love to hear your voices one last time so please call. Tell us your best memory.

Miami Flying Trapeze is a professional flying trapeze school that offers lessons for all levels and all ages. There is a harness, as safety is our number one priority. We teach beginner technique up through pro level. We offer accelerated classes that allow students to fly through the air to a catcher.
Flying Trapeze is an Art, but it’s also one of the most advanced forms of exercise available. Flying Trapeze works your core, your stamina and overall flexibility while pumping your body full of adrenaline. It’s exciting and a healthy addiction. Fly with us or fly somewhere else; when we meet you, it will be our pleasure to welcome you into our circus family. “May the wings of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars…”
Become a Member and pay $0 for every class. That means you can fly 5 times a week. As members, you benefit from extra days a week only for you. You'll learn how to make a career out of the Art. If you reach a proficient level, Skipper will help find you work around the world with his many different contacts and partners.
If you can throw a Layout (out of lines) to the catch, and return to the board, you will have reached an amateur pro level and Skipper will consider you proficient. But your training doesn't end there. This is just the beginning of your career in the Circus Arts. This is where you have a chance to enter "Flight School," where you join the instructors and fly and catch at an additional $0. You'll be part of a class that will be considered for shows and further advanced training.
