Work. Sleep. Eat. Drink. Rinse repeat. Sometimes, even when you're living in the greatest city on the planet, you can end up in a rut. You lose track of yourself. You lose track of what it is to be alive. Enter the Trapeze School of New York. Swinging on flying trapeze with a view of the Statue of Liberty is a surprising tonic for the soul.
Situated within the Hudson River Park between Vestry and Debrosses, the Trapeze School of New York provides rank amateurs with the oppurtunity to try their hand at the art of the flying trapeze. The school takes full advantage of every safety precaution available and is open to all ages and abilities.
Classes are available throughout the day every day and beginner 2 hour lesson is just $57. However, the roster fills fast, so make reservations in advance. Check the online schedule here.
