Something we always wanted to do and loved every minute of it. Highly recommended. The instructors guide you the whole way.

Allan O’Connell

Awesome. The staff and instructers are so friendly and patient, the flying trapeze is one of the jewels of this place, alongside the rock climbing, parkour/trampolining, and silks area. There is even a little cafe to relax and a fantastic circus theme park inside the building for your little ones to play!
