Try: Beginner Aerial Hammock  

When: Saturday, May 21st, 10am-11am
Where: Elevation Arts & Fitness / 11031 Lake Ridge Rd. Knoxvill  

If you like yoga — even if you don’t do it that often — you should definitely, certainly, positively consider giving Aerial Yoga a try!

Aerial yoga defies gravity and allows you to perform various yoga poses that may be difficult to do on the ground, but easier in mid-air. ... Suspended yoga strengthens core muscles and increases spinal and shoulder flexibility.

Price: $18/class or class-packs and memberships are available!

First Class: $10!!

You’ll be supported by a soft hammock, which allows your body to let gravity do some of the work.

Counter-gravity works to reverse the negative effects of gravity by decompressing the spine, releasing muscle tension, and enhancing blood circulation. 

The hammock is also intended to assist in proper body alignment and deepen awareness.

RSVP: www.elevationartsandfitness.com OR Use the "Vagaro" App
