General Info
Fly! Boise is a center for aerial arts instruction and performance, opening Summer 2015. Center stage at Fly! Boise will house the flying trapeze rig. Participants of nearly all ages and abilities will safely climb the ladder to the pedestal and be guided by 3 flying trapeze professionals to accomplish a trick which matches the flyer's ability level, culminating in transfer to a catcher on a separate trapeze and a gentle landing in the safety net. Beginning classes require no special skills; serious flyers may accept the challenge of ever-increasing levels of difficulty. For strength-building, endurance, grace and fun, aerial arts can be a gateway of inspiration. Aerial silks involves long silk fabric upon which artists climb, spin, wrap and dance. Static trapeze participants hang, pose and climb in feats of balance and strength. Lyra is a circular steel apparatus on which to perform acrobatics while static, spinning or swinging. Paula J. Murphy, D.C. Local chiropractor, flying trapeze enthusiast and amateur aerialist. Paula's fantasy of opening a flying trapeze school began in 2013 and has led her to connect with some of the best trapeze rig builders and teachers in the country. She is committed to building a school that is accessible, affordable, challenging and FUN! Additionally, Paula has worked for 17 years with Dr. Patch Adams (yes, about whom the Robin Williams movie was created) in the arenas of Health Care system design reform and therapeutic clowning. With Patch, she has taken chiropractic care and clowning on humanitarian missions to Cuba, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Peru, and El Salvador.
