Acrobatic Yoga – what is it ?

Fundamentals
Acrobatic Yoga (also often known as a subset of Acrobalance) involves partner assisted acrobatic movements usually with one partner lying on their back on the floor and the other partner elevated off the ground performing a range of balances, stretches, rotations and aerial movements.

History
This style of acrobatics is an evolving sport. It has been practiced in many guises and forms over the years and overlaps a number of diversified sports and schools – and that’s the fun of it! Most people with a reasonable level of fitness will enjoy the challenges of this practice.

Who would get the most benefit out of it ?
– Friends and Partners who would like to practice safe and fun acrobatic movements at home
– Yoga practitioners who are looking to get something more from their practice
– Teachers of Acrobalance, Yoga or Gymnastics who would like to expand their practice
– People who are looking to keep very fit and strong in a new fun way
– Adagio practitioners to develop trust and provide a foundation of an extensive range of groundwork to work with either as part of their performances, or to use as an ideal low-level way to practice higher hand to hand skills 
– Parents who want to have fun with their children
– Husbands and Wives or just friends who would like to expand what they can do together as a sport
