Key Biscayne sailing is a pure joy, as is gliding along the waters just about anywhere else
off Miami. A good starting point is Monty's Marina, which is perfect if you have your own
boat.
Rodeo
Rodeo in South Florida? You just have to head a little way out of Miami. Check websites
or call ahead for specific rodeo times. If the idea of performing animals and spurs in the

SOUTH FLORIDA CIRCUS ARTS SCHOOL
Admit it: you always wanted to fly on the trapeze, clamber out of the clown car, tame a li-

some circus-worthy acrobatics, contortion and flexibility skills, come to the South Flor-
ida Circus Arts School (SFCAS; % 954-540-1344; www.sfcas.com ; 15161 NE 21st Ave) in North
Miami, off North Biscayne Blvd, about 8 miles north of the Design District. SFCAS claims

the circus. It's a ton of fun and pretty unique; classes include aerial fitness, trapeze skills
and the extremely popular flying yoga course (just try it), with fees ranging from $15 to
$75 for an hour of instruction. See you in the center ring…
