Aerial Yoga classes
Aerial multi-level yoga
|
Come fly with us for aerial yoga! Aerial Yoga is a type of yoga which uses silks, also known as hammocks, to allow students the capability to access all yoga poses. Aerial yoga is beneficial for those who spend a long time sitting, or who would like some assistance with their backbends, as it has a decompressing effect on the body. You don't need to be an acrobat to learn and love aerial, just an openness to flying freely through yoga poses. Each of our aerial yoga classes is an authentic offering of our unique and talented Instructors. Our yoga classes are personal, not company scripted, we honor the wisdom of our teachers and encourage them to teach classes they believe in. Aerial multi-level is welcome to new students and experienced students alike.
*Please refrain from wearing tank-tops or sleeveless shirts to Aerial Yoga classes. Sleeved shirts are required. 6 HR PRE-REGISTRATION REQUIRED WITH AT LEAST 3 SIGNED UP No Refunds/Credits for No-Shows. |

Soaring Strong: advanced Aerial Strength Building
|
Aerial yoga uses silk suspended from the ceiling as a support through yoga asanas, offering us strengthening and stretching throughout the whole body, especially the spine. Aerial strengthens the core, arms and legs as we use resistance from the fabric. The lightness, sense of being weightless when suspended in air, and acrobatic nature of the movements elevate the mood, and increase mindfulness.This class will focus on strength building in ever increasing levels, and incorporate more advanced poses. Beginners will find it a challenge: Please take at least 5 mixed level classes to ensure your comfort and safe handling of silks before enrolling.
Please: Arrive 15 minutes before class to set up. Remove all jewelry (it can catch and tear the fabric) Avoid eating at least 1 hour prior to class & bring water The silk is pressure on sensitive areas of your body.

Guided meditations transport us by using relaxation techniques and storytelling to help us escape our racing thoughts - we don’t just focus from within, we live it through sensations as if we were actually there.This class will begin with stretching to warm up and relax the physical body, and bring focus from the external world to self. A guided image journey will provide for deep relaxation
Please: Come a few minutes early to prepare your space with a mat and any props you may want: blankets, eye pillows, bolster, etc. Be prepared to smile. Wear comfortable clothing. in-person only |
