Aerial yoga blends traditional asana with Pilates, dance, and acrobatics using a silk hammock—letting you explore deeper stretches, supported inversions, and fluid transitions. It's a hybrid form first developed in 2006 by Michelle Dortignac that builds flexibility, strength, and balance.
Aerial yoga evolved from a mix of aerial arts, acrobatics and modern yoga. The contemporary format became popular in the 2000s and spread through studios that wanted to add playful, supported inversion work to traditional practices.
Aerial yoga suits most levels — from complete beginners to advanced practitioners. The hammock supports the body in ways that make inversions accessible and allows progression safely. Consult your instructor if you have eye/heart/back conditions or are pregnant.
No—Aerial Yoga is beginner‑friendly. You'll learn the basics safely, regardless of your experience level.
Yes—when taught by certified instructors using proper equipment. However, those with specific health conditions (e.g., high blood pressure, vertigo, glaucoma, heart conditions, pregnancy beyond first trimester) should consult their doctor first.
Wear close‑fitting, breathable clothes that cover your torso, armpits, and legs to avoid fabric chafing. Avoid jewelry, loose or scented garments.
Not at all. The hammock supports much of your weight, making challenging poses more accessible while building your strength gradually.
"BeingYogic transformed my mornings! I never considered myself a 'yoga person' until I joined. The classes are so thoughtfully designed — I feel stronger, more centered, and energized throughout the day. The instructors are incredibly supportive, always checking in and correcting with kindness. It's my daily moment of calm in a hectic schedule."
I've also met a wonderful community here — people who motivate each other. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, this studio adapts to your pace and needs. Highly recommended!
