Learning to Fly
Job got you down? Thinking of running away to join the circus? Who does that? Well… you can. Deep in Woodland Hills, down a little suburban side street, in a circus family’s backyard, is a 3 story trapeze rig, ready for your trembling little limbs to climb the narrow ladder to stand high above the trees ready to take a leap of faith.
Richie Gaona is a 4th Generation Circus Performer, and his son Alex, the next generation, is also up in the rigs. They have been taking novices through fly school for generations, so you are in able hands. There is nothing quite like the feeling of just letting go and let someone catch you.

YES! Nice double flip! You are such a badass. This was so much fun. I get sweaty palms all over again just watching you climb the ladder.
