BEGINNERS: Join Imperial Flyers for one of our "Open House" events if you'd like to give trapeze a try! For $10 we'll show you the ropes, lock you into safety lines, and let you fly...twice! YOU MUST HAVE PROOF OF HEALTH INSURANCE TO PARTICIPATE. The Open House policy is first come first serve, so please show up on time. Wear work-out clothes and socks.

Upcoming Open House Dates:

Saturday, August 28th, 4-6pm

We hope to see you then!

Physical Fitness Requirement: To swing on a flying trapeze, you must be able to climb a 25+ foot vertical ladder and also stand upright while holding a 15+ pound bar out in front of you. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or injuries, please consult a doctor before participating in this activity.

If you have flown before, or if you're a beginner and you absolutely can't make our open house dates, please call Paula (303 426 7455) to make a reservation to fly with us. Do NOT show up at the rig without a reservation.

Drop-in and group reservations are available between May and October, except for the last week in July and the first two weeks in August, when we are preparing for our show.

Disclaimer:

We are not professional trapeze teachers or coaches and no Imperial Flyers member makes any money doing this. Everyone who puts in time at the rig does so on a purely volunteer basis. We all have other jobs and simply fly trapeze because we love to do it and enjoy the challenge. Some of us do it better than others -- we all have much to learn, but we are willing to share what we know and hope that anyone who joins us does so in that same spirit.
