The combination of both Aerial Fitness and Yoga creates a fun, challenging workout!
Using traditional yoga principles, the hammocks bring focus to your practice, becoming your work space, replacing the traditional yoga mat. Aerial yoga defies gravity and allows you to perform various yoga poses that may be difficult to do on the ground, but easier suspended or assisted. Suitable for all levels as we can modify accordingly.
This programme is designed to be taught to all levels and can help clients with remedial needs. Specific attention is paid to modifying exercises for individuals, correcting and ‘spotting clients’. During an aerial yoga session, practitioners use the hammock to enhance their flexibility, strength, and balance. The hammock acts as a prop, helping individuals deepen their stretches, explore inversions, and experience a sense of weightlessness. The fabric of the hammock is typically made of a strong and supportive material, such as silk or nylon, which can bear the weight of the practitioner.
Our classes are all about fun and fitness; for all ages, sizes and abilities. We all work together to be encouraging and all inclusive. Please browse the website for information regarding class timetable before emailing us, but if there is something you cant find then don’t hesitate to ask!
