Aerial Yoga

Also known as anti-gravity yoga or flying yoga, is a unique form of yoga that combines traditional yoga poses with the use of a yoga hammock suspended from the ceiling. This practice allows you to explore a wide range of movements and poses in the air, offering a different perspective and adding an element of playfulness and creativity to your yoga practice.

Using a combination of traditional yoga poses, pilates and dance with the use of an aerial hammock. It defies gravity and allows you to perform various yoga poses that may be difficult on the ground, but easier in mid-air.

It’s fun, acrobatic and its many physical benefits include increasing flexibility, soothing back problems, building strength, improving balance, aiding digestion and can even improve memory!

It can also help improve many aspects of everyday life, including increasing confidence & overcoming fears.

Sometimes our inner child gets lost in the demands of adulthood. This style of yoga brings the inner child alive as it lifts yoga off the mat and into the air. It’s definitely not about how it looks, but all about how it feels and can bring out a light, playful energy. Guaranteed to leave you with beaming smiles and a spring in your step!

What better place to try this magical yoga practice than at Limehouse Yoga studio.

“Aerial Yoga is, for me, a way to tune in and feel present. When I allow myself to completely trust and let go, the flow of postures and sequenced movement can be extremely therapeutic and meditative.” Nay Webb

Benefits

Aerial yoga offers numerous benefits for the body, mind, and spirit. Some of the advantages include:

  • Improved flexibility and strength: Aerial yoga requires the use of various muscle groups to stabilize and move in the air. This helps to increase flexibility, strength, and overall muscle tone.
  • Spinal decompression: Hanging upside down or in various inverted poses allows for gentle traction and decompression of the spine, which can alleviate back pain and improve spinal alignment.
  • Core strengthening: Many aerial yoga poses engage the core muscles, leading to a stronger and more stable core.
  • Increased body awareness: Aerial yoga challenges practitioners to find balance and control in a suspended environment, promoting body awareness and coordination.
  • Stress relief and relaxation: Aerial yoga incorporates elements of mindfulness and deep breathing, helping to reduce stress, increase relaxation, and promote mental well-being.
  • It’s important to note that aerial yoga is a physically demanding practice and may not be suitable for everyone. Your teacher is a certified instructor who can guide you through the proper techniques and ensure your safety. Our workshops are designed for complete beginners and then you can gradually progress as you gain strength and confidence in the hammock.
