Everyone around you knows more than you.
Our individual experience of the world is fantastically limited. Considering the reach of our imagination, our ability to perceive what is actually happening to us is microscopic. If you ever had a reason to consider the benefits of your race as a single organism, here is a really good one. We are all designed to deliver the distilled contents of our life experience in a highly suitable and digestible fashion for other humans. That is, you can take something it has taken your entire life to learn and teach it to another instantly. When you consider the possible learning that is available from the thousands of relationships you might have in your life, the potential results could be staggering.
Schools are not only a place to learn but, to learn how to learn. If your teachers only spew information at you they are doing you a terrible disservice. If they have done their job well, you will learn to see the world, and the people in it, as an open and proactively interactive book.
Imagine if all the lessons we have hard won could be instantly transmitted to those around us. Our natural immunity to bad ideas slows this process by necessity but, if your conscious mind is actively sharing, seeking and vetting new ideas the process can be as rewarding as an olympic athletes performance on a excellent diet.
It takes time to teach the body new skills. Have you designed yourself to be an efficient learner?
Tune your ear to hear wisdom. Tune out the chatter of gossip, Judgment, ego and self doubt.
Focus your mind on opening to miraculous leaps in understanding. Let go of the need to be right, better than and accepted.
Speak the truth of what you have hard one. Silence words who's only value is filing time.
Most importantly, open your heart to the possibility that everyone around you knows more than you can possibly know on your own, that you are part of a great process of knowing and entitled to as much of that birthright as you can design yourself to absorb.
If doing what you dream is impossible, don't change the dream change the rules. See you in the sky. Jonathon |

Friday, July 30 All Classes Are On!
Summer is going by quickly this year but don't let today's classes fly you by. There are still a few spots left in Flying Trapeze classes at our indoor location on West 30th Street so snap them up quickly - at the moment you have 10:45am, 1:15pm, 3:30 and 6:00 but not for long! If those times aren't convenient for you then why not give another one of our offerings at the tent a try? Come see what our aerial program is all about by taking Aerial Hammock & Silks with Kristin Young at 4:00pm. You'll get instruction in two types of apparatus for the price of one, all the while enjoying the benefit of Ms. Young's skills. Last but not least there is Trampoline at 5:45pm, a great way to break a sweat and have fun at the same time.
***This Weekend: FLYING TRAPEZE ON GOVERNOR'S ISLAND!***
TSNY has begun holding classes at our new third location in New York, on Governor's Island. You can sign up for classes by clicking here and choosing classes at Governors Island. We run three classes a day, at 10:45am, 1:30pm, and 3:45 every Saturday and Sunday for the rest of the summer. To learn more about our newest location and for directions on how to get there, click here. Sign up today!

As seen on "Better TV," this video featuring Better's Fitness Expert, Andrea Metcalf, and our incredible TSNY instructors (Mandy, James & Breton) shows you how you can fly high and get a great workout. It is also a great snapshot of what to expect in your first flying class.
Even Men's Fitness got in on the action! Men's Fitness senior editor Nate Millado shares with the readers a little secret: He's afraid of heights... but he did it.And so can you! If you want to give up that gym membership and the same ol' routine or want to change things up once in a while, you've come to the right place! As Nate says, "Right after the class, all my muscles (including ones I never knew I had) were sore. One of the instructors had told me he had given up his gym membership altogether ever since teaching trapeze five times a week. I understood why: trapeze is a total-body workout... worth the experience."
Model Julie Henderson becomes a model student at TSNY: she had fun, kept smiling and caught her trick in one magical morning on the roof Pier 40 overlooking New York City's beautiful landscape.
