AcroYoga

For Beginners & Improvers

What is it?

Prepare for fun, fitness and frontiers pushed as you learn the fundamentals of AcroYoga, an accessible fusion of yoga and partner acrobatics that lets you balance on each other, to experience how it feels to fly and how to lift up and support each other!

Why Join AcroYoga?

  • It's fun - Have you felt the thrill before of doing your first cartwheel or headstand? Well, in Acro we share in that joy together, making it all the more fun!
  • Easier than it looks - that's right it isn't impossible at all and you're much closer to pulling it off than you might expect
  • Strength and flexibility - people always think you need to have these first, but the reality is we build these in the classes, not outside of them!
  • Community - there's no tighter knit group than one where people literally lift each other up and keep each other safe and happy the whole time!
  • It's portable - all you need is you and someone else and you can do Acro anywhere! An awesome skill for the beach, the park, with family, friends. It travels with you wherever you go!

What to Expect in your AcroYoga Class

Prepare for fun, fitness and frontiers pushed as you learn the fundamentals of AcroYoga, an accessible fusion of yoga and partner acrobatics that lets you balance on each other, to experience how it feels to fly and how to lift up and support each other!

There are no pre-requisites! You do not need to be able to touch your toes or do a handstand or anything like that. All you need to be able to do AcroYoga is a body, arms, legs and above all an open mind.

In these classes you will quickly realise how achievable all of the movements are, because we work together to make them happen we can do so much more than you would expect!

Improve your body confidence, awareness, strength & balance. By the end you will be shocked with how much you accomplished! Most of all they will always make you feel welcome, because for them AcroYoga is about coming together, supporting each other, and creating something greater than the sum of our parts.
