Aerial Yoga & Pilates
Come join Lisa in her fun, challenging and uplifting aerial yoga and pilates class!
Service Description
Aerial yoga is a unique and exciting form of exercise that combines traditional yoga poses with the use of a hammock or silk fabric suspended from the ceiling, allowing you to safely explore a wide range of movements and inversions that would not be possible on the ground. This unique form of yoga challenges the body’s strength, flexibility, and balance in a way that has the ability to be both empowering and enjoyable. Aerial yoga is often described as a blend of yoga, acrobatics, and aerial arts, providing a fun and challenging workout for both the body and mind. Aerial yoga requires the use of muscles that may not be activated during traditional yoga . The hammock provides resistance and support, allowing you to build strength and increase flexibility in a safe and controlled manner. In addition, the hammock allows you to sink deeper into the poses, enabling you the ability to hold the poses longer. On the Pilates side, the instability of the hammock forces the body to engage the core muscles to maintain balance and control. The suspension of the fabric increases the amount of core work required for Pilates Matt based exercises due to less surface area you are in contact with. This helps to strengthen the muscles of the abdomen, back, and pelvis, leading to improved posture and stability. The fun part of aerial yoga and pilates is that it will allow you to become more aware of your body in the air!!! The need to balance and control movements in the air requires a heightened sense of body awareness, leading to improved proprioception and coordination. The suspension in the air from the inversion allows for gentle traction on the spine, relieving pressure and promoting spinal alignment. This can help alleviate back pain and improve overall spinal health.
