If you like yoga, then you must definitely give aerial yoga a try. Believe it or not, it is 10 times more effective, fulfilling and calming than normal yoga. Are you wondering what the difference between the two is? Here’s how it works: you sit on a soft hammock made of high-density nylon material, held up by carabiners, support chains and webbing straps. You can change the height based on what works for you.

Now you must be asking yourself what does aerial yoga offer? Don’t worry, we’ll tell you all about it.

1 – The additional freedom of movement will allow you to move your body and explore new position, which will give you the opportunity to achieve greater flexibility.

2 – Aerial yoga not only challenges your body, but it also challenges your mind through the positions you take, making you more aware and centered.

3 – The work of gravity in aerial yoga does wonders for your body and forces your muscles to work harder in order to provide you with balance.

4 – In addition to being a great stress reliever, aerial yoga uses stretches and poses that allow you to discover something new and relax those overworked muscles.  

Like most exercises out there, aerial yoga is totally safe to practice if it’s taught by a certified instructor. Someone who doesn’t know what he/she is teaching can leave you with serious injuries. So choose the right trainer, stay safe and enjoy this new way of better living!
