Darrel tried the Flying Trapeze for the first time in 2000 and was immediately hooked. He has been teaching Flying Trapeze since 2002, working with students from beginners to advanced. His performance experience on the Flying Trapeze gives him insight into what students are going through. With many years experience in meditation, he brings a Zen approach to working and teaching trapeze. He loves the challenge of getting a student to push safely past their comfort zone and on to a higher level of flying. Being a flyer, he knows the importance of giving students as much freedom as they can safely manage. You can also see Darrel and his partner Lizette perform on the Double Trapeze as a Duet at various venues in the bay area.
