Talk:Trapeze

message: •	Beyond the facts about trapeze, the most important aspects of trapeze are grace, flexibility, strength, endurance and unique style. 
•	You need grace so that when you swing and switch between tricks, you look nice and everything flows. 
•	You need to be very strong to do trapeze because the basics of trapeze involves being able to pull yourself up into tricks or beat on a flying trapeze. Beating is when you hang from a trapeze that is still and pump your legs and arms back and forth, like on a swing, to go higher. Beating requires a lot of arm and abdominal strength. 
•	You need endurance for trapeze because even though it doesn’t seem like a long time, many routines are more than five minutes long and if you are not in shape aerobically, then you will not have the strength and energy to last this long. 
•	In order to do many tricks, you need to have flexibility in your back and your hips (to form a split). 
•	Style is also very important to trapeze because each trapeze artist has their own style that makes them unique. Some trapeze artists are very structured in their range of movement and some make it more like a dance in the air.

message: It would be nice if this article addressed trapeze work "without a net," since it figures prominently in fiction (and in real life?  I don't know...that's why I looked it up :-)  Afabbro 05:21, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

message: In my 14 years of trapeze, I've never heard anyone refer to a rig as a trapezoid, as in the article's following line:
"The trapeze is a short bar that is hung by two cords from a support higher up; when these cords and the support are included, the trapeze is shaped like a trapezoid."
Nor have I ever heard of "Multiple trapeze".  I know of doubles trapeze (two people on the same bar), duo trapeze (usually two people on two bars, but can also refer to doubles trapeze), and triple trap(eze), which is 3 - 5 people on a 3-person bar.
So, unless someone has sources or something, I think these parts should be deleted...

message: Could someone who knows what's where please link to other aerialist forms? For example, Quynbi Horton's performance (pictured) is clearly not trapeze, but it is clearly related. I've also seen two women aerialists work with a large ring suspended in mid-air, clearly not a trapeze as such but also clearly related. - Jmabel | Talk 23:16, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
