Whether you’re looking to open tight hips or find length in your spine, we use the fabric to release tension in ways floor yoga often can’t. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Splits have always been a love of mine.

The hammock supports your body weight, which means you can sink into postures that feel intense on a yoga mat but become manageable, and even relaxing, in the air. We focus heavily on hip and shoulder release—areas where most people hold the most stress—using the fabric to provide the stability you need to let go. ### How Aerial Stretches Work Traditional floor yoga relies entirely on your own strength to hold an alignment. In aerial yoga, the hammock takes on some of the load. This is a game-changer for flexibility training because it removes the 'fight' against gravity. You aren't just stretching; you are decompressing. We utilize Low-stretch Nylon Tricot hammocks, which provide a stable, firm base. This allows you to explore: * **Spinal Decompression:** By hanging inverted or in supported reclined positions, we take the pressure off your vertebrae, allowing the spine to lengthen naturally. * **Deep Hip Opening:** Using the hammock to support one leg while you stretch the other (like in our aerial Hanumanasana variations) ensures your hips stay square and aligned, preventing injury. * **Shoulder Mobility:** Many of us carry tension in our traps and shoulders. Through specific aerial transitions, we open the chest and stretch the lats, which helps improve posture significantly. ### Your Safety in the Air I know the idea of going upside down can be nerve-wracking. That is why every session at my Sanpada and Seawoods studios begins with a focus on safety. We use professional-grade rigging with a 900kg+ load capacity and high-density foam crash mats under every hammock. Whether we are practicing inverted butterfly poses or simple supported stretches, you are always in control of your movement. We move at your pace, transitioning from floor-based warm-ups to aerial work only when you feel stable and ready. ## About Sushmita Mukhia I spent years avoiding poses that required strength, so I know exactly how intimidating new movements can feel. That’s why I love using the hammock—it turns that struggle into play, helping you build core power and flexibility without feeling the strain. I’m just here to guide you through the air, one deep stretch at a time.
