If you want to learn how to swing from your knees or walk a tightwire, then you should try out aerial, or circus, fitness. Circus has seen a resurgence throughout the U.S. in the past several decades; circus schools and companies have been opening everywhere.

Since I’m in the newspaper business, I take lots and lots of pictures each week. I’ve come to find out that most people don’t like having their picture taken. Maybe that’s why I’m always on the photographer side of the camera.
