In this photo taken Tuesday, Aug. 12, 2014, a Filipino flying trapeze student positions herself on the bar during their first day of practice at the Flying Trapeze Philippines School in suburban Makati, south of Manila, Philippines. The outdoor school sits in a grassy clearing surrounded by high-rises in the business district in metropolitan Manila. Chinese American businessman William Hsu said he opened the facility more than a week ago to build self-confidence and promote health among students. The sport has been gaining adherents, he said, with more than 150 such schools worldwide. (AP Photo/Aaron Favila)
