Aerial Yoga Classes in Santacruz West

Aerial yoga, often called anti-gravity yoga, is more than a trendy workout. In our studio, we use the hammock as a prop to support your body weight, which allows for deeper stretching and decompression of the spine. If you have been struggling with desk-related stiffness or back pain, the gentle traction provided by these poses can be transformative.

In my classes, we do not just focus on the 'wow' factor of flipping upside down. We prioritize alignment. We start with simple warm-ups to get comfortable with the fabric before moving into standing poses and eventually, supported inversions. Whether we are practicing Ustrasana (Camel Pose) with hammock support or finding stillness in a floating Savasana, the goal is to build strength in your core and upper body without the repetitive strain of gym weights.

I keep the environment light and supportive. You will find that the hammock makes poses you might find difficult on a mat—like deeper lunges or specific hip openers—suddenly accessible. It is playful, yes, but it is also a grounding practice. By the time we settle into our final rest, you will feel the physical release in your muscles and the quiet focus that comes from a balanced practice.

We keep the groups small for a reason—so I can guide you through every adjustment. You do not need to be a gymnast to join. If you can breathe and are willing to try, you can do aerial yoga.
