Do you remember the rush of climbing a tree as a child? The tingling sensation in your palms as you dangled from a jungle gym? As we transition from playgrounds to hour-long traffic jams, these happy memories tend to disappear in the maze of deadlines and pending bills. Aerial yoga helps to relive that adrenaline rush and endorphin kick, while we reconnect with our inner child. Aerial yoga is a type of yoga which uses a hammock or yoga swing to allow students to perform postures that they may not ordinarily be able to attempt on the yoga mat. Aerial Yoga combines traditional Yoga with the training of an Aerialist. Suspending your body from aerial hammocks elongates your spine, frees-up physical compression for healthier joint mobilization, and also develops tremendous upper body and core strength. This unique form of yoga can be practiced by students through all levels of experience that combines traditional yoga postures with the basic training of an aerialist. With the weight of the body supported, students learn how to achieve proper postural alignment through relaxation rather than effort, enhancing a relaxed and peaceful state of mind as well. Challenging traditional yoga postures, such as inversions and deep backbends, can be achieved without effort or strain with the use of the Aerial Yoga fabric.
