Aerial yoga combines the movements of aerials with traditional yoga postures. The hammock is kept close to the ground and becomes a swing in which to support and stretch the body in mid-air. Some postures will become more accessible with the assistance of the hammock while others will become more challenging. This class is an excellent place to begin any aerial journey. Aerial yoga has particular benefits in strengthening and stretching the body, decompressing the spine, and lifting one's mood. Join today to elevate your yoga practice!
