AcroYoga blends the spiritual wisdom of yoga, the loving kindness of Thai massage, and the dynamic power of Acrobatics. These three ancient lineages form the foundation of a unique new practice that cultivates trust, connection and playfulness. Our highest aim is to bring individuals into a state of union with themselves, with each other, and with the divine. From this place of mutual support the true self can be realized, honored and shared for the benefit of all. This 2 Day Workshop is an amazing opportunity to enliven your asana practice, and is the most fun you'll have had in a long time!
AcroYoga teachers teach this exceptionally fun form all around to world to yogis of all ages, shapes and sizes. Don't let the photos or descriptions fill you with doubt, you'll surprise yourself with what you're capable of under their expert guidance. It is incredibly fun and easier than it seems. Don't limit yourself and miss out! We had SO MUCH fun with the girls earlier this year, join us again this time! This could be our last workshop with a certified AcroYoga teacher for awhile as Justicia is moving to Philadelphia so DON'T MISS IT!
Session 1 - Saturday, August 30:
ACROYOGA FUNDAMENTALS AND FLYING LABORATORY | 1:00-4:00 pm
Open your practice with the ease, comfort and the support of a partner. This workshop touches upon all the disciplines that AcroYoga offers, combining Yoga, Acrobatics, and Thai Massage. The class experience includes: Circle Ceremony, Mirrored Asana, Partner Yoga Flow, Partner Acrobatics, Flying Sequences and Thai Massage. Grounded in the breath, we will draw upon the natural forces of gravity and the Buddhist concept of "metta" (loving kindness) to encourage the body to let go of fear and tension. Students are requested to have familiarity with yoga. For returning students, a Flying Laboratory will be offered, where participants will be offered personal, individual basing and flying guidance. No partner necessary!
Session 2 - Saturday, August 30:
ACROYOGA THERAPEUTICS: Flying, Thai Massage & Deep Partner Stretching | 6:00-8:30 pm
AcroYoga Therapeutics facilitates release on both the physical and energetic level, by using gravity to our advantage in relationship to a partner. The healing touch of Thai Massage applied to flying asanas will unravel fear and tension, and reveal our natural alignment with ourselves and with one another. We close with Deep Partner Stretching, using hands-on active/passive asana assists to expand our true capacity for flexibility gains. Highly recommended for massage therapists and private yoga instructors. No partner necessary, intermediate yoga practice recommended.
Session 3 - Sunday, August 31:
ACROBATIC FLYING TRANSITIONS | 10:00-12:30 pm
Learn to flip, spin, drop back and float, all while suspended in the air with the support of a partner! This workshop builds off the 3 Basic Flying positions Folded Leaf, High Flying Whale, and Back Leaf and incorporates even more to create dynamic flying flows. Students will develop an acrobatic flying sequence, with variations offered for more advanced AcroYoga practitioners. Come with a headstand practice and comfort kicking up to handstand at the wall. No partner necessary, intermediate-advanced yoga practice recommended.
