Arlie Hart TEDx...
Flying Trapeze Instructor, Owner of Pathfinder Rigging, Psychologist
Flying Trapeze Instructor, Owner of Pathfinder Rigging, Psychologist (Putney, Vermont USA) Arlie grew up climbing up on things and then jumping off things. When he discovered the flying trapeze it was as if a part of his childhood was reborn. 15 years later, he brings his love of flight and the joy of self-discovery through the experience of flight to people all over the world. By allowing people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves through the use of the flying trapeze, Arlie has helped people of all ages to stretch their notion of self to include things that may have at one time seemed impossible. Being a part of that growth is Arlie’s favorite part of teaching and flying on the trapeze.
Jonathan Diamond on Connecting Points...
Helping kids cope with depression or anxiety can be a difficult task for parents. Recovery Theater, a new program in Franklin County, uses theater and even circus stunts to help kids who are struggling. One of the catalysts behind the program was the area’s opioid crisis effect on children and families. Recovery Theater Co-founder Jonathan Diamond and Alexandra Schmidt discuss the organization’s work.
