The couple went to Trapeze School New York, which offers a variety of trapeze classes including static trapeze, silks and rope, lyra, and conditioning and acrobatics.

Upton and Verlander had been spotted quite a few times in recent weeks. The couple, who had been involved in celebrity-hacking scandal where private pictures were leaked online, is certainly taking advantage of the baseball offseason to spend time with each other. They also make sure to keep their supporters and fans updated with their romantic outings by sharing pictures on social media.

"Cougar Town's" Carolyn Hennesy is a trapeze artist. Hennesy has been enjoying trapeze lessons for more than a decade now. It is one of her secrets to staying fit at her age.

Former artistic gymnast Shannon Miller also had a high-flying trapeze adventure as part of her mini-series for a Florida-based fundraiser. Traci Dinwiddie of "Supernatural" also takes trapeze classes to make her workout fun and exciting. She is a regular at Kinetic Theory Circus School.
