The Trapeze is a swing with a bar and two chains, ropes or bungees going up each side to a center point to form a triangle, then a single rope goes up to the swing mount. The trapeze can be hung on a single-point or two-point rigging system.

The Trapeze is a fun aerial apparatus that offers many benefits to children.  Our trapeze is extra challenging as the bungee adds an element requiring extra focus and physical strength.

Ways to use the Trapeze in Aerial Yoga
