Many aerial yoga positions, especially the more advanced ones, require a great amount of physical exertion. And sometimes, the support of the hammock squeezes our body in a way that restricts the breath. In this workshop, you will first learn various breathing techniques to practice both on and off the hammock which will help you establish and/or maintain deep breathing. Then, we’ll practice applying what we’ve learned to challenging aerial yoga positions.
We all know how important breathing is for survival. And yet, rarely do any of us practice breathing exercises to improve our unconscious tendencies.
This workshop will help train your body to breathe more deeply, take longer breaths, and to dissolve stress by supporting your parasympathetic nervous system (our “rest and digest” mechanism). When you feel less stressed, your body’s various parts and systems function more efficiently. You’ll think more clearly, feel healthier, and avoid the onset of stress-related illnesses. This is in addition to the increased strength and flexibility aerial yoga gives you!
A focus on the breath is the hallmark of classic yoga, and eventually leads practitioners to successfully meditate. Over time and with practice, a yoga/meditation practice can help people manage a long list of physical and mental/emotional discomforts such as: anxiety, depression, insomnia, high blood pressure and tension headaches, to name a few.
