Air Yogalates
Air Yoga
These classes begin with the Sun Salutation sequence with variations using the hammock. The hammock is then used to assist in modifying yoga asanas providing support in holding poses and adding challenges for inversions.
Air Pilates
Classes are hammock assisted core strength and conditioning classes. These classes start with conditioning on the mat and progress to choreographed routines on silks and hammocks with new sequences every class.
Air Yin
Restorative classes with a more meditative approach through passive stretching. The hammock and props are used to hold poses longer with the intention of eliminating unnecessary tension. Classes are 90 minutes and are not included in the class card packages.
