Acro Yoga
I just returned from a business trip to SLC, Utah for the Outdoor Retailer Tradeshow. It’s a really great event. I was very thankful that Prana creates a space for Yoga classes. So I was able to break away during my lunch to take a class to try ro re-center myself. After class, the teacher, Jason, asked if anyone wanted to try out Acro Yoga. I came back a little later and took him up on it. And what a cool experience it was.
Basically, he laid on his back and stuck his feet straight up in the air. I then placed my hips onto his feet. we then played around with balance. There is so much trust that you have to place in your partner. You have to relax as well. It was so fun. We played around with Bird(boat with straight legs), Shoulder stand, and Scorpion. I was able to get my toes to my head. I haven’t even done this before by myself. I think that with the support and encouragement given by my partner I was able to experience yoga in a different way. I was able to drop my boundary lines and let myself move forward. It was a very playful experience that I am glad I was able to have.
I am excited to keep exploring this new dimension of yoga that I have come across. It’s ever evolving.
