Get out of your comfort zone this weekend by trying a unique sport with your other half.  Summer is the perfect time to be adventurous.  It’s warm outside and there are a variety of activities that can keep you and your partner learning something new.

For example, you can act like cupid and shoot arrows during an archery lesson.  Or, spend time in the country and fire up some heat at a shooting range.  You can make a game out of either of these activities and whoever wins gets to pick a romantic location for lunch.  Don’t forget to bring your camera to capture these very special moments.

Another unforgettable sport for the two of you to try is trapeze.  Take your love off the ground and experience what it’s like to perform in the circus.  Trapeze schools are common in major cities, and there are lessons for beginners of all ages.  You will be able to try moves that are as basic as the knee hang to a more complex mid-air catch.  Although this is a gutsy sport, the support of your loved one should help you get up that ladder and flying in no time.

What’s the most unusual date you’ve ever been on?  Let us know in the comments below.

    Trapeze is a very nice idea!

    It’s really romantic, but I still do think it’s really scary. I wish I could do it with my other half. I guess I would rather ride a roller coaster than to try that thing!

    The couple in the picture look so happy! Like all you could see is the excitement. No fear!

    I believe that whatever it takes and whatever sport it may be. I’ll be willing to try it as long as I would try it with my partner. It’s more of saying, love conquers all. Even fear.

    I love circus and I’d be willing to try this, even with or without my partner.
