In any yoga practice we are constantly moving toward a state of yoga.
#AERIAL ACROBATICS HOW TO#
When I’m teaching yoga classes, whether on the ground or using the aerial yoga hammock, I always think about how to guide students to the next level of understanding themselves. I want them to understand the skill and through the sometimes arduous process of mastering a skill they are likely to learn something important about themselves too.īut the way I use progressions in aerial yoga is different because the intentions of yoga are primary and the difficulty level of a pose is secondary (or even further down the list). Progressions are defined as “the process of developing or moving gradually towards a more advanced state.” Whether I’m teaching an aerial yoga class or an aerial circus class, I am using progressions.Īerial acrobats are constantly using progressions to get into a harder skill. “How am I doing this skill?” Of course, there is definitely going to be some overlap in these two types of classes and these two questions, but there are many important differences as well. “Why am I doing this pose?” As an aerial instructor I am constantly thinking about progressions. As a yoga instructor I am constantly thinking about intentions. I teach both aerial yoga and aerial circus (in different classes).
For anyone who’s taken both types of well-taught classes the differences are usually pretty obvious, but it can sometimes be confusing for new students. Lately I’ve been fielding more and more questions about the difference between aerial silks (circus) and aerial yoga.
