AcroYoga blends the wisdom of yoga, the dynamic power of acrobatics, and the loving kindness of healing arts. These three lineages form the foundation of a practice that cultivates trust, playfulness, and community.
What is Therapeutic Flying?
Therapeutic flying is categorised under the healing art practice. Some people might call therapeutic flying “flying Thai massage” or “aerial massage”. Bases (givers) will guide the flyers (receivers) into the inverted flying position on their feet and manoeuvre the flyers through some passive assisted stretches and massages using gravity. Flyers are most of the time completely passive and they learn to let go of their tension from the whole back, abdomen, shoulders and a neck. For bases, this can also be quite therapeutic once they learn to relax and trust their technique. Their hamstrings will open up and get a good stretch. They also strengthen their whole legs, core, shoulders and arms. They learn to stabilise and balance from the core. We also utilise spotters when required to ensure safety, and a relaxing experience.
What is Thai Massage?
Thai massage is a traditional form of massage performed on the ground. Combining stretches, acupressure and harmonics the "receiver" can relax and integrate the healing benefits. Using a sequence of gentle, flowing exercise movements, the recipient’s body is moved, loosened and stretched in order to increase muscle flexibility and joint range of motion. The Thai technique differs from a regular massage in that it is done fully dressed and no oils are applied.
