Our aerial yoga teacher training is a yoga based, rather than acrobatic, form of aerial yoga using the soft yoga hammock to practice traditional hatha yoga. The hammock is a prop like a strap or block, intended to assist alignment, deepen awareness and provide the immediate benefit of spinal decompression. With the weight of the body partially or fully supported along with the help of gravity, we can explore and create space in our bodies as intended in traditional yoga practice. 4, record 2, English, - aerial%20yoga%20hammock
