🌟November Flying Trapeze Intensive🌟
What a incredible 3 days of flying, catching and watching amazingness.
The learnings are that every trick has to be caught, every return bar has to be grabbed (with two hands) and every board has to be mounted as well as every catcher has to be slapped.
LISTO!!! Thank you all 💕

⚽️🎪Go Matilda’s!!🎪⚽️ The super strict referee was not shy on handing out the red cards yesterday at the Whitehorse Spring Festival. Our trusty goalie/catcher did a amazing job and the the team scored many goals by making round trips with encouragement from the crowd! We were extremely lucky with the weather holding out for all three shows!
Thanks team x
