Our Aerial Yoga
Evergreen Colorado Classes
Aerial Yoga blends the mental and physical, leaving you feeling elevated inside and out. When you spend your time hanging (safely) upside down, you’ll start to realize that most things are a matter of perspective. Where other home workouts are just a flex for your body, this practice yields countless benefits for both your body and mind.
Built on the foundations of Hatha Yoga and Cirque performance, Aerial Yoga is an elevated practice of unique experiences. Our principles are simple: your practice should be expansive, instructive, and fun. Our mission is to ensure that each journey into your hammock opens up new inquiries of self-exploration and personal growth

What is Aerial Yoga?
In an aerial yoga class, you perform the same poses you do on a yoga mat, except you use a silk hammock that's suspended from the ceiling as a prop to support you through the various flows. The purpose of the hammock is to help you improve flexibility and build strength, while allowing you to do more challenging poses without added pressure on your shoulders, spine, or head.
Aerial Yoga blends the mental and physical, leaving you feeling elevated inside and out.

Where other home workouts are just a flex for your body, this practice yields countless benefits for both your body and mind.
Deep Savasana and meditative practices in your hammock add a benefit to your practice because of the way gravity interacts with your body. Our unique hammock system allows you to combine your yoga practice with the benefits of a float experience as you defy gravity, and melt into the horizon of your mind. Aerial Yoga is the fun way to access the pure joy and excitement that floating in your hammock provides.
In Aerial yoga, the hammock is kept close to the ground, generally less than a meter from the floor. It becomes a swing which can support the hips in both forward and back bends. For many people, yoga postures that are difficult on the ground can be performed more easily and with less strain on the body in mid-air.
Is is suggested that in addition to the emotional, physical and spiritual benefits of all yoga practice, Aerial yoga has particular benefits for strengthening and stretching the whole body, decompressing the spine, improving circulation, boosting digestion and lifting one's mood. In particular, Aerial yoga strengthens the core as well as the arms and legs, to support the body in mid-air.
Although Aerial yoga can be performed by people with all levels of fitness, it is not recommended for pregnant women or those who suffer from vertigo, due to the flips and inversions practiced during the class.
