Aerial Yoga

Aerial yoga in Frome offers a fresh way to experience movement, balance, and ease. With a fabric hammock suspended from the ceiling, you can explore familiar shapes from a new angle. Inversions feel more accessible, stretches can open more deeply, and the whole practice brings a light, playful quality to the room.

What Makes Aerial Different

The hammock transforms the practice. Postures that may feel challenging on the floor often become easier with the added support. Inversions — where the head is lower than the heart — can happen with greater ease and a sense of safety. Because you can combine your body weight with the hammock’s support, deep stretches may feel even more spacious.

There is also an element of joy to it. Being lifted slightly off the ground can awaken a sense of curiosity and play that many adults rarely get to experience. Swinging, hanging, and moving through space can feel both freeing and grounding at the same time.

I offer aerial yoga as private 1-to-1 sessions only in my yoga room in Frome. This allows for my full attention and a pace that is tailored precisely to you. If you are looking for group classes, I also offer Hatha yoga and Yin yoga.

What Aerial Yoga Can Do

• Spinal decompression — inversions can help lengthen and decompress the spine, often easing back tension.
• Core strength — staying stable in the hammock engages the core in a different way from regular yoga.
• Deeper stretches — the hammock supports your body, making it easier to relax more fully into each stretch.
• Joint health — this low-impact practice is gentler on joints than many other forms of exercise.
• Mental benefits — the playful feel and focused attention required can be deeply calming for busy minds.

Common Questions

Do I need yoga experience for aerial yoga?

Can aerial yoga help with back pain?
Many people find aerial yoga supportive for back issues. The hammock allows gentle spinal decompression and supported stretches that may help relieve pressure along the spine.

What should I wear?
Fitted clothing that covers the backs of your knees and underarms works best, as it helps prevent the fabric from pinching. Please avoid loose clothing and remove jewellery.
