Brian Flint, aka "Ledge"— Chief Instructor: Flying Trapeze
Brian fell in love with the flying trapeze in 1996 at a club med resort in Turks and Caicos. After returning home with a new found dream, Brian continued his training with world class flyer Richie Gaona in L.A. for the next 4 years and another year with the legendary Tony Steele at Trapeze High in San Diego, CA. Brian’s professional debut came in 2004 with the flying Casares at Monumental Circo in Portugal.
Brian then became a Cirque du Soleil apprentice in 2004 and 2006 for the La Nouba show. In 2009 Brian was cast in Cirque du Soleil's Mystere show as a catcher for the aerial high bar act. After leaving Cirque du Soleil, he has continued to work professionally for a variety of productions, camps and training facilities around the world. We are honored to have him here at Emerald City.
