Anti-gravity yoga or "aerial yoga", is a new type of yoga now being practiced in several countries, which combines the traditional yoga poses, pilates and dance with the use of a hammock.  Be sure to join our FLOW at the end of the term where we put all those moves into a choreographed dance in the silks!
