Discover the Art of Connection in Motion
Step into the playful and dynamic world of AcroYoga with our Transitions & Flows workshop — an invitation to move from static poses to flows and explore the graceful dance of continuous movement. This experience is designed for practitioners who want to fulfill their understanding of seamless transitions, creative sequencing, and shared balance between partners.
Throughout the workshop, you’ll be guided you through:
- Foundational principles of fluid weight transfer and counterbalance
- Techniques for smooth transitions between poses and washing machines
- Communication and connection tools to enhance safety, trust, and collaboration
- Creative flow sequence that build confidence, grace, and resilience
Expect a playful atmosphere where we break down complex movements into accessible progressions, whether you are flying, basing, or spotting. Our focus is not just on the final shapes, but on how we arrive there together — with presence, clarity, and joy.
No need to bring a partner — we’ll create supportive partnerships throughout the session.
Come ready to move, connect, and play!
