Aerial Yoga Week 3 – The High Trapeze

Aerial yoga was even more awesome than usual this week. I got on the high trapeze and it was so scary! But I did it! I not only got up there, but I had to stand up and end up in a position not standing on the bar or holding on to anything. My heart was beating really fast, but I knew I was secure so I took a couple deep breaths and let go. Holy shit was it amazing!

Ria and I were in different groups this week, but I snapped a picture of her doing the dirty dreadlock.

My arms are getting a lot stronger – I was able to do a Russian descent (where you kick your legs out in a V as you lower yourself down the fabric) and get on the trapeze a bit faster.

  1. I keep meaning to comment on these posts. Aerial yoga seems like the coolest thing EVER! I think it’s so neato you’re taking these classes and it’s so great you have girlfriends to go with you! Your workout outfits are always so cute and make me want to buy more leggings + hoodies and such!

    That last shot of you upside down really does look very Circque! Bravo, Madame! You both look awesome. I wish I could do something similar, but running is taking up all my time right now.

    You guys are my heroes!
