The concern with the well-being and the inclusion of the other is a trademark of this style. As I see, the aim of AcroYoga Montreal isn’t to conquer tricks, be able to reproduce flows/combos, do handstand or whatever other acrobatic stunt. The aim is the development of autonomy and the possibility of moving together with other people, in a search for authentic and liberating expressions that exists in all of us, in a not only bodily, but also of one’s own consciousness expansion.
The teachers are nurturing and scientific in the way they educate, strengthen, and pass on this valued and cherished practice, in the most articulate of ways. It was an honor to train with them, and the only way to feel the love is to be a part of it. Long live acroyoga!
Inspired by AcroYogini and dear friend, Einat Bardea, July 2013 had me undergo the month long teacher training with AcroYoga Montreal, in the vibrant and festive French Canada. This marked the beginnings of an incredible Acro adventure, full of travel, street performing, acrobatic training and teaching! Along the way I practiced and taught with many different people. Each new acrobatic relationship formed had me learning sooo much about myself! That is one of the main things I love about this practice of AcroYoga!
Acroyoga makes me feel life in an explosive and intense way, and this has changed me forever. For this, it makes sense to believe in acroyoga as a tool to change the world. About the teachers, impeccable is still a word that does not translate, but that every form approaches my feeling with relation to all aspects (communication, presence, love, attention, didactic, teaching, technique...). I have participated in many Immersions, never had so much impeccability and mastery before."
Thank you for teaching me your art and coming on the journey with me. In four weeks, I didn’t always want to but you required me to show up everyday for morning practice and demonstrated the power of commitment, determination and dedication. You also demonstrated the power, of a fit body and clear mind. All I can say is: Core, baby!
