What is Aerial Yoga

Aerial Yoga is a new form of yoga that combines the traditional Hatha yoga with the possibilities and techniques of aerial acrobatics. A long loop of special cloth is suspended at hip height and is used to support the student in standing yoga postures, balance, forward bends and hip openers. Difficult postures become easier while other easier postures offer more challenge. Supported by the cloth and conscious breathing, tension and resistance can be reduced on a physical, mental and emotional level, allowing us to open up the body and mind further. Fear of "inversions" (e.g. head and handstand) can be overcome with the help of the cloth. Strength from your core, flexibility, alignment and balance are further developed. The flying and swinging postures bring an extra fun element to your yoga practice, while an Aerial Savasana (lying down resting posture), offers you a deeper relaxation. More information about this unique yoga form can be found on the website of Aerial Yoga and of course you can always ask for a personal explanation.
