Join us on Jan 30th for some right side up and upside down fun!! :D We'll have skills and drills for people who already have a 5-10 second Hand2Hand and will offer a ton of progressions, strengthening and calibration exercises for those of you who are still refining your practice. Pre-requisite: Must have a sense of humour 😊

THE WORKSHOP!
Hand2Hand & Foot2Hand.
with Smiley Om on Jan 30th, 1:00-3:30EST

Here is a chance to work deeply! Greg and Diana will offer drills for skills to work toward a better foot to hand and hand to hand practice. Refinement will be fostered through solo conditioning, thoughtful progressions, repetition, and detailed cueing and feedback. This teaching duo is known for their ability to offer level ups for those with experience, while providing variations for folks newer to the skills. Their style is gentle and favours precision and comfort over sheer strength.

Prerequisites: comfortable in star, some experience with low foot to hand.

30USD or FREE for AYG members.

One thing that we have been so grateful for during this challenging time has been new ways to form community. We have loved meeting other acroyogis from around the world through online platforms.

Join us Thursdays at 8pm EST on for our Journey to Hand to Hand class! If you want to attain a hand to hand, or get stronger in an existing hand to hand, this is the class for you. Come for the conditioning and stay for the giggles 😊

Last week we participated in a yogi photoshoot, organized by the wonderful . One of the goals of the photoshoot is to highlight the existing diversity within the Ottawa yoga community and bring it to the forefront.

With all the awareness and happening, what are your thoughts on diversity in the Ottawa scene? Are studios as diversified as you would like? Do you think studio teachers are a good representation of the diversity in the yoga community? Why or why not? If not, how can we change this in a genuine way and not merely through tokenism?

Though we've been staying productive during these social distancing times, our acro practice has really diminished. This standing hand to hand was the first in over a month, and it felt really great to be outside in the sun holding each others hands. Thinking of all of you and all of our fellow monkey friends, hoping we can hold your hands in the not so distant future. 🙏👐😊❤️🐒 Stay happy and healthy.

Happy Valentine's Day!
While acro is great for kissing poses like this (😘) we believe that acro is a community activity and is not targeted at couples only. When people come to an acro event, they get much more than romance -they find humour, strength, compassion, enthusiasm, trust, communication and friendship - just to name a few! 🤗
If you want to hang out with your acro friends tonight, come to at 7:30pm to jam and support Australian bush fire relief.
