A couple of moms who have kids in Nursery Blue at Peninsula, also have kids in Jessica's class. One of them organized this trip to Trapeze Arts in Oakland. It worked out to be $40 per person, and it was the best time! I perspired from nervousness like I have never before, but it was fun. I even missed my first catch attempt and hung by one leg until I could "right" myself. Unreal!
Here are Jess and I before we started :)
We did a bunch of practicing of getting the legs onto the bar (not as easy as it once was), hanging by the knees, reaching, grabbing the bar again, and dropping before the catch by another trapeze person attempt was made. I also got to do some back flip dismounts - FUN!
Jess' second catch :)
My only catch :)
