Unwind with Yoga and a Low-Hanging Hammock
Aerial yoga, also known as anti-gravity yoga, is the practice of traditional postures in an aerial hammock. While your upper body and core strength are challenged, your lower back experiences ease and comfort. Aerial yoga is popularised for its benefits on the back; you can expect to experience spinal decompression, which can alleviate pressure on the vertebral discs and promote better spinal alignment.
This playful, creative and dynamic form of yoga allows you to open your mind and heart, leaving you in total stillness and serenity. By combining fluid movements with mindful breathing techniques, aerial yoga fosters a deep sense of inner peace and tranquility, allowing you to cultivate a profound connection between your body and spirit. Whether you’re looking to find balance, enhance your flexibility, or simply embrace a more playful approach to your yoga practice, aerial yoga provides a unique and enriching experience that promotes holistic well-being and a heightened sense of mindfulness.
Much like traditional yoga, aerial yoga is a slower-paced class, that focuses on deep stretches and deliberate movements. Here are some popular postures you can expect to find in our aerial yoga classes:
Aerial Downward-Facing Dog: Similar to the traditional yoga pose, this variation utilises the hammock to support the body weight and allows for a deeper stretch through the arms, shoulders, and back.
Aerial Warrior Pose: A dynamic pose that involves using the hammock as a support while in classic warrior stance, engaging the core and lower body muscles for stability.
Aerial Plank Pose: This pose entails holding the body parallel to the ground with the support of the hammock, engaging the core and upper body muscles for strength and stability.
