The Amelia Project Aerial Dance Performance

Floor-to-ceiling aerial dance and trapeze inspired by Amelia Earhart

Aerial dance, trapeze, live music & projection: join us to witness the Amelia Project, a thrilling performance inspired by Amelia Earhart and other aviators.

This is the final phase of Fly-by-Night’s two-year project inspired by Amelia Earhart and other aviators. Performances features floor–to–ceiling aerial dance accompanied by live piano and percussion score and video projections that include the use of aerial cameras, which allow the audience to experience the world from within, above and below the trapeze.

Emotionally, the work portrays Earhart’s fearlessness (one solo is performed blindfolded), and the passion of early aviators to put themselves in the air at all costs.

The first 20 Outdoor Bound clients to purchase tickets will also receive a FREE two-hour aerial dance & trapeze workshop! The class is on June 27, from 6-8 PM at Soundance, 281 N. 7th Street in Williamsburg Brooklyn.

Experienced, Fun & Qualified Guides

From cycling across the United States to leading horse treks through New Zealand to scaling Nepalese peaks, Outdoor Bound guides have real-world outdoor experience. Collectively, they have hiked, biked, climbed and kayaked tens of thousands of miles around the globe.

Whether their professional backgrounds are as teachers, personal trainers, artists, environmentalists or business leaders, they all have an extensive knowledge of the natural world and local history. Each guide has also passed a rigorous guide certification program and is trained in wilderness first aid or as a Wilderness First Responder.

Diverse & Interesting Groups

There is no typical Outdoor Bound participant. While ages typically range from 20 to 50, those who come to experience outdoor adventure range from singles to couples, from lawyers to waiters. They are a mix of women and men. While the group is always diverse, you will certainly feel welcome. Our guides go the extra mile to make the atmosphere of each trip social and fun. Many people in the Outdoor Bound community have forged lasting friendships as a result of our trips.

New Experiences

Skydiving, ice-climbing, hot-air ballooning, skiing and hiking every weekend are just a few of Outdoor Bound’s year-round adventures. These trips are accessible to everyone, including the novice, who might feel a little uneasy, the young urban professional trying to get away and even the adrenaline junkie looking for a new rush.

Environmental Awareness

“Leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but pictures,” is the Leave No Trace motto embraced by Outdoor Bound. From purchasing bamboo T-shirts to printing with soy-based inks on recycled paper, Outdoor Bound strives to create the least environmental impact possible while on trips and in the office.
