AcroYoga
AcroYoga: The Yoga of Trust and Connection
AcroYoga is a dynamic and playful partner-based practice that blends the wisdom of yoga, the dynamic power of acrobatics, and the loving kindness of Thai massage.
The Three Roles
- Base: The person on the ground who supports the flyer.
- Flyer: The person who is lifted off the ground by the base.
- Spotter: The person who ensures the safety of the base and flyer.
The Two Sides of the Practice
- Acrobatic (Solar) Practice: The dynamic and playful side, involving sequences and transitions.
- Therapeutic (Lunar) Practice: Focused on healing and relaxation, where the flyer is passive and receives stretches.
Key Poses
- Front Bird: A foundational pose where the flyer balances on the base's feet.
- Throne: The flyer sits on the base's feet as if on a throne.
- Folded Leaf: A therapeutic pose where the flyer hangs passively in a forward fold.
