Why would you do crazy stuff like Acroyoga? Because it's super fun, it looks fantastic, it makes you better at communicating, it builds community and it cultivates trust while making you stronger both physically and mentally. Oh and you can be the cool kid with the awesome tricks at the party!
After years of practicing yoga I heard about this "partner yoga", a practice that incorporated yoga, acrobatics and Thai massage. I saw a couple people doing it and I remember thinking "I'd never trust someone to not drop me. I don't even trust myself not to fall, why would I ever want to do this?"
A year later (two years ago) I found myself floating on someone's feet in my first Acroyoga workshop. This time my thoughts were "ok just do what the teacher said; stay stiff, engage my core, lift my chest bla bla bla ahhhh I forgot what I have to do! and I'm really scared to look down, oh man..... I'm flyyyyyying!!".
Boom! I was suddenly in love with a practice that challenged my boundaries and made me face my fears. It allowed me to feel like a kid again, to PLAY, to trust others AND myself, and it reminded me that it is not only ok but NECESSARY to SAY what I need to protect me and everyone else, which is very useful in everyday life as well.
And so I play........
BUT IT'S NOT ALL SHITS AND GIGGLES! Learning Acroyoga requires training: Strength, Flexibility and Technique. It takes Time, Discipline and Responsibility, as you may not know all the techniques that will make the practice safe, for yourself and others.
I thought it would be fun to share the process of how we got into a fun new pose we played with last Sunday.
