FLIGHT is an innovative fitness training class that combines strength, flexibily, balance and spinal decompression. With the support of a 9 foot “silk” hammock you will go deeper into yoga poses, challenge your abdominals like no other workout and get the benefit of an intense cardiovascular workout that won't hurt your spine. When was the last time you hung upside down? Workout like a grown-up but feel like a kid.
According to a study by American Council on Exercise (ACE), participants of Aerial Yoga burned an average of 320 calories in a 50 min session and yielded cardiovascular effects in the range of low- to moderate intensity exercise. “After the six-week long Aerial Yoga program, participants experienced significant improvements in several health risk factors such as body weight, body-fat percentage and blood pressure. ”
