Jonathon Contant, owner of the Trapeze School, rigs the trapeze at the Santa Monica Pier on Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Trapeze School New York (TSNY) is scheduled to open on the Santa Monica  Pier sometime in May. This will be their fifth location, with other locations in New York City, Boston and Baltimore. The open-air school provides great visibility and allows passersby to watch the trapeze in action. The trapeze provides a super cardio workout facilitating muscle toning and balancing. It's a fun activity to share with family and friends. Flying classes are open to the public.
