This workshop is part of our running series of monthly beginner acro yoga workshops. We will build from our previous acro yoga workshops, so those who attended previously will be able to build transitions and learn new moves. While those new to acro will be given time to catch up on the basics.
Acro yoga is where the worlds of acrobatics and yoga collide.
We explore the joy of flying, basing and spotting from a yogic viewpoint.
This gives us the opportunity to build connection and trust during this uplifting and playful practice.
With a focus on support and technique we are all able to explore all three crucial roles in the acro dynamic. If you have ever been interested in acro but thought you would be “to big/heavy” to fly or “not strong enough” to base please think again.
I support you with gentle encouragement and a wealth of experience to explore all sides of the acro team. Acro yoga is often seen as a partner activity, but my approach is much more community focused. This gives us the opportunity to build trust, courage and communication with the people we share this experience with.
Acro yoga is a really fun, uplifting and supportive activity, giving grown-ups the rare chance to play and enjoy platonic touch.
The nature of this practice means that some level of physical ability is required, although most people can join in and have fun regardless of age, ability and body type (my oldest acro yogi was in her 70s the first time she flew!). It is also full contact practice, which requires consensual physical contact with other acro yogis. If you have any questions about these elements I welcome questions and conversations before you sign up. Sometimes these aspects can feel a little daunting, but I’m pretty sure you’ll love it if you want to give it a go!
