AcroYoga Workshop with Rita and Matt

More Info

A fun workshop to explore the "Solar" and "Lunar" sides of the Acro Yoga practice. Learn about the Solar side of Acro Yoga with movements and transitions; then explore the therapeutic, or Lunar, side which incorporates the art of supportive touch in a safe environment. BOOKING IS LIMITED TO 20 PEOPLE, SO EARLY BOOKING RECOMMENDED. In this three-hour workshop, Rita and Matt will take you through the fundamentals of Acro Yoga, introducing the elements and poses of the practice through partner drills and accessible progressions. You will work in partners/small groups to practice the basics of Acro Yoga transitions and to learn about the skills and techniques of taking your practice to another level. This practice is based on listening, trust and respect, and more importantly about exploring and expanding your physical and psychological limits, overcoming fears when stepping out of your comfort zone and building trust and connection with other people regardless of size, strength or flexibility.
