On Trapeze

“You don’t have to be superstrong to do trapeze, you just need balance. It’s like with wine—you don’t need a strong wine, you need it to be balanced.”

On Making Time

“During the harvest, I don’t have time for a formal workout. But I hike through the vineyards and lift equipment in the winery.”

On Stretching

“I’m not very flexible, so trapeze has been great for me. Hanging by my hands stretches out my lower back.”

On Wine Tasting

“I love to taste wine with some dried fruits after trapeze class. You shouldn’t drink a lot after a workout, but a little snack is good for everybody.”
