What is Aerial Yoga?
This type of yoga combines traditional asana and yoga philosophy with the use of aerial silks (hammock).
This is an amazing way to unwind, let go and have some fun. Not only is it fun, but also extremely beneficial! It allows us to dive deeper in to each asana and our breath.
Aerial silks are made up of soft, stretchy material which molds to our body and allows the feeling of antigravity, taking us back to our childhood!
It is hung from the ceiling and almost reaches the floor, it is adjusted according to the persons height. And is able to hold the persons weight.
What to expect?
We will dive deeper into each asana not only developing flexibility but also strength!
Connecting our breath to our movements and bringing focus inwards even further. Becoming one with our breath and once again developing our connection to our body.
Together - We will learn how to fly!
Our Practice
