Questions about Aerial Yoga

 

What is aerial yoga?

It involves performing traditional yoga postures with the help of a specific fabric, also called a “hammock”. This hammock is installed by a professional to guarantee optimal safety.


What are the benefits of aerial yoga?
Fly yoga or aerial yoga is great because it relieves the joints and makes it very easy to perform postures that are usually only performed by experienced yogis (inversions for example).
It's the perfect tool to relieve back pain, because during head-down postures it allows spinal decompression and stretching of the back.
Aerial yoga is also a discipline that encourages letting go, self-confidence and re-appropriation of the body.
And more than this ... It's a particularly fun discipline that offers the possibility of freeing the body and the mind.


Is aerial yoga suitable for everyone?
Yes, it can be practiced at all ages, and without having any prerequisites. No need to have practiced yoga previously, this discipline is suitable for beginners.

However, it requires a minimum of physical condition, and has contraindications for people with glaucoma, venous thrombosis, inner ear or blood circulation problems.


What does happen during a class ?
The class includes, as in our regular yoga classes, a phase of work on breathing, sequences of postures using the hammock as a support more or less close to the ground, a short sequence of postures upside down, possibly learning a posture "aerial", then a phase of meditation and guided relaxation, lying in the fabric or on the ground.
It's a 1h class, with a maximum of 5 participants to guarantee the safety and the good learning of all.


Where does aerial yoga come from ?
Fly yoga or aerial yoga may seem like a new discipline, resulting from a new fashion, but it is not because yogis have always found ways to hang to stretch their spine. Iyengar master himself uses rope systems to hold his students in an inverted position against walls.

 

Do you want to give a try ?

Join our Aerial yoga workshop for beginners, a 2 hours special class where you'll learn safely all the basis about aerial yoga, then practice and stretch, do your first "head down" and -the best part- enjoy a relaxing time lying comfortably in the hammock. Then we'll share a tea/coffee and we'll do a debriefing.

This workshop is for up to 4 people. Price : 35 Euros

 

Yoga classes with certified teacher

We decided to settle here in Pirate Deluxe because this place is full of authenticity, quietness and well being.

All our senses are awaken : you can feel the warmness of the sun on your skin, the sea breeze that cuddles your face, you can breathe this pure air mixed with smells of pines, rosemary and sea smell, listen to the hipnotic sound of the waves and the cigadas ... it's a place where you feel alive and connected to nature.

 

Practicing yoga helps to become aware of your body, to breath better, in one word, to free yourself.

We choose to offer a practice that fits everyone, with no esoterism thoughts and no complicated words.

 

Our yoga classes focus on breath and on a flow of poses that help to get rid of tensions while taking care of sensible areas such as back, neck and joints. Our method is based on anatomy and respect of the whole body. Alexandra your teacher has been certified  by kinesitherapeute Olivier Fernandes (www.yogastyleparis.com), by Dr De Gasquet (www.degasquet.com) and by Florie Ravinet (www.fly-yoga.fr)
