Embodying the physical form Sunday, September 26th, 10-1pm & 2.30-5.30pm

A day to tap into your source of strength, flexibility and creative will. We will explore the qualities of embodying the acrobatic, beginning with conditioning & strength exercises followed by a strong vinyasa practice before working on various inversions to turn your world upside down (headstand, forearm balance and handstands). You will be working progressively in pairs and in small groups towards partner balancing, group pyramids and trios involving a base, flyer and spotter with a focus toward basic flying transitions. No partner necessary by a willingness to explore your fearless inner child required.

About Jaqui and Tobias

Both are fearless acrobatic junkies with teaching experience across Europe and recently across North America. Their teaching style is compassionate ‘boot camp’ yoga. They are able to blend clear instruction with humour and playfulness. Using a ‘kick ass’ music playlist they are both creative spontaneous and receptive to the different needs of students. Both are passionate practitioners and community builders.

Participants can attend Saturday as a one off event. However, to attend the Sunday offering we require you to either attend all day Saturday or have some experience of AcroYoga and or have an intermediate yoga asana practice and are comfortable with inversions (assisted headstands/handstands against a wall).

A Norwegian Adventure

Always the potential to be a tourist attraction

What a beautiful country is Norway! After spending ten days with a most generous host Thomas Horgen, a budding AcroYoga enthusiast and professional climber, both Tobias and I could not have been in better hands. What did we get up to? In between weekend workshops in Oslo and Trondheim, we managed to head up into the mountains to practice our yoga, rock climb in the big outdoors, taught teenage children AcroYoga, swam but in my case paddle in freezing clear river water and all under the canopy of glorious sunshine!!

It felt like holiday! Absolutely fabulous or ‘fantastiske’ in Norwegian. It was a great opportunity to be out in the glorious county a lovely change from metropolitan urbanite living, ‘Man I am so blessed!!’
