Writing on their website, Gymbox said: “Ready to break free from the chains of everyday fitness routines? Inspired by the legendary Harry Houdini's workout regime, world record-breaking escapologist Rob Roy Collins has devised a unique AERIAL class to challenge your body and mind.

“Teaching techniques in flexibility, breathwork, agility, and finger-dexterity drills while you hang from the ceiling, it's a workout that escapes limitations and suspends all belief.”
