ABOUT THE AERIAL YOGA COURSE
Aerial Yoga (also known as Anti-Gravity Yoga) combines traditional Hatha and Ashtanga yoga postures with the use of a soft hammock suspended from the ceiling. This technique helps to decompress the spine, enhance core strength, and improve flexibility — while also making inversions more accessible and safe.
Our Aerial Yoga Teacher Training Course in Rishikesh includes theory, practical workshops, teaching methodology, safety principles, sequencing, and creative asana variations.
