About this Event
***
A special three-hour acroyoga class. This is inspired by my original teacher, who would teach three-hour classes. His reasoning was that the first 2.5 hours tire out students. So, in the last half hour, they have to use perfect technique.

đ§ââď¸ Acroyoga Learning Lab: Take For Three Hours
Never Too Grown Up For Play â Discover Acroyoga
đ

⨠Your midweek lift
Whether youâre brand new or already hooked, this class is your weekly chance to fly, play, and connect.
No partner requiredâjust curiosity and a sense of adventure.
đŞ What to expect
Each class blends:
- Guided warmups and partner drills
- Flow sequences for different levels
- Spotting, progressions, and bailing drills to build confidence
Youâll learn to base (lift), fly (be lifted), and spot (support others) while improving body awareness, communication, and teamwork.
You donât need to be especially strongâif you can probably hold the top of a push-up for a few seconds, thatâs usually enough to start.
đ Why youâll love it
â
A full-body workout that builds strength, flexibility, and coordination
â
Exercise that feels like play, not work
â
A social, collaborative way to meet new people
â
Builds trust, balance, and communication
â
Each class brings fresh challenges and laughter
