Aerial Yoga
where Art & Well-being meet
Aerial yoga combines traditional asana and
yoga philosophies with the aerial arts. Silk fabrics
and/or ropes are hung from above to aid practitioners in forming shapes.
Get to know the concept
Hanging fully or suspending individual body parts is believed to create
traction and
open your body more gently and intuitively
than when you’re on the floor.
The silks and ropes can also be helpful for
balance.
While many aerial yoga classes have an acrobatic element, a growing number
of classes and teachers are also using the aerial silks much more
therapeutically.
