Swing into summer.
Trapeze jobs in America.
What's involved in trapeze jobs at summer camp?
You’ll be teaching campers the art of swinging through the sky gracefully and safely. You’ll have a mix of ability level of kids so you’ll need to tailor your classes accordingly, but as long as they go away having learnt something, you’re flying (pun intended).
You can also develop your own skills throughout the summer too, meaning you’ll have more to pass onto the campers in the lessons. If you have this experience and passion to pass on to the campers, then let us know in your application, we would love to hear from you.

FAQs
When starting your application you’ll be asked to select your top skills. Choose trapeze. Go into detail about what you’re going to bring to the role, your skill level and if you’re already qualified. A camp director will then be able to assess if you’re a good fit and invite you to their camp.
Campers come down to sessions in age group divisions. These divisions can vary in skill level, but are usually made up of 10-30 campers. You’ll then be paired with an individual camper or a group, and don’t worry - you’ll be supported by your fellow specialists and counsellors.
Of course! Everyone needs time to recharge their batteries after an exciting but hectic week at camp. You'll have days off, as well as the opportunity to explore the local area and further afield. Most camps will give you a 24 hour block of free time every week, whilst some others provide 2-4 days off in a row every few weeks.
