The thing that made me fall in love with AcroYoga
Updated: Sep 2, 2021
When I first encountered AcroYoga, I had been doing acrobatics for about 5 years already, and was very excited about my new passion.
I wanted to perform on stage, learn all kinds of circus disciplines and get real good at acrobatic tricks and flows.
Yet something was still missing, I just wasn’t really aware of what it was.
I liked the acrobatics community, the people were fun to hang out with and very nice.
So nothing wrong there...
But I had also started a therapeutic massage education, and in that, experienced a depth of touch and connection that I didn’t find anywhere else.
Then one day
Some of my acrobat friends told me how they had done a teacher training with the "AcroYoga" school, and "if I was interested in trying it out?"
Of course, I joined them in a small circle, and had my very first therapeutic flight, and my first time doing partner stretches, and my first Thai massage. I loved it!
On a technical level it felt very easy, but on an emotional level, this felt like such a nourishing way to connect to others.
The atmosphere was friendly, happy and loving, and we had a great time together.
It was like finally my acrobatic practice became whole and complete.
