    Acro Yoga

    Perhaps one of the most dynamic variations of yoga, Acro yoga combines three elements - solar acrobatic practices, lunar healing arts practices and yogic practices emphasizing on simplicity and complexity, movement and calmness, with a touch of kindness and nurturing. It is done with a partner, where the two constantly switch between different roles. There is a constant cycle of trust, letting go, breathing, stretching, cultivating and above all, challenging yourself. You will defy gravity and eventually, even your expectations with yourself.

    Underwater Yoga Diving

    The deep expanse of the ocean can be a little intimidating and underwater diving brings us face to face with a deafening silence we are not always ready to face. There is a feeling of weightlessness and a stark awareness of the ?now', accompanied only by sounds of our own breath and heartbeat. Sounds a little familiar, doesn't it? Diving is the embodiment of a spiritual and meditative practice, stressing more on pranayama. Deep dive into yourself as the world above ceases to exist.

    Aerial Yoga

    It is a liberating exercise, giving you an incredible experience of lightness as you soar, twist, stretch and float in the air while doing the most complicated and intimidating postures with an astonishing ease. It employs the use of muscles, especially the core, you perhaps did not even know existed, as you will realise when your feet finally hit the ground. Aerial yoga is taking the ancient tradition to new heights and forces our minds to trust the human body more freely.

    Restorative Yoga

    Restorative yoga is meant to take the body back to basics - restore peace to the mind, body and soul and be wholly present - more often than not, a challenge for most of us. We often abuse our body with extra work, unhealthy food, potent drinks and less sleep; there is bound to be a point of burnout. That is when restorative yoga comes in to help you get back on a healthy track. It uses props like pillows, eye pillows and blocks and can be a bit of a challenge for those who find sitting still an absolute chore. Think of it as an ?adult nap'.
