Welcome to my studio. In this practice, you’ll feel what a single-point hammock brings to familiar yoga poses. We’ll start with a little swing in Chair, find room for the hips in standing Pigeon, and finish on the mat with our feet in the fabric. You can stay right side up for the whole class.

Your Printable Class Guide
Take the class with me first, then use the six-page guide to revisit what you felt. You’ll find pose photos, the sequence at a glance, and cues for adapting the practice. If you teach, the two standing Pigeon photos are a good place to compare how a small weight shift changes the pose.
Curious how this practice began? I first lowered my aerial hammock toward the mat when I was pregnant. I share that story, and what the hammock brings to familiar poses, in Why I Use a Hammock as a Yoga Prop.
