The practice of Aerial Yoga is done with a single long length of fabric that is hanging from the ceiling from two points, in a loop or "U" shape. The hammock is used for traditional yoga poses done with support to help with decompression and stability. These supported yoga poses are executed with the hammock rigged about a meter off the floor with a yoga mat under the hammock. Being that some poses will be off the floor, you will use the fabric for support and to deepen stretches. This style of yoga can be utilized to improve flexibility, strength, and relaxation.
