On Saturday, June 4th, you will find Corinna Nelson with the other members of the Youth Fly Team under the flying trapeze tent. The show begins at 7 pm at SANCA, the School of Acrobatics and New Circus Arts in Georgetown.

Corinna just before she got caught!

In between all her commitments, she answered a few questions for us.

What is your favorite maneuver that you will be performing?
My favorite maneuver that I will perform is a back-end bird’s nest.

What is the hardest maneuver you do and why?
The hardest maneuver I do is the swing, because even if I get it really, really good, it will always need work.

And how many years have you been doing the flying trapeze and would you recommend it to others?
I have been doing flying trapeze for one and a half years and I would totally recommend it to others because it is really fun.  Just remember not to look down!
