Why This Training Is Different

Experience Behind the Course

This training has developed through many years of teaching aerial yoga, running classes and workshops, and training teachers.

Rather than learning only a collection of poses, you benefit from practical experience of how to structure classes, teach safely, communicate clearly and create an experience that students want to return to.

20+ Hours of Supporting Video Material

Your learning continues after the practical training.

You receive access to more than 20 hours of supporting video material, allowing you to revisit exercises, techniques and teaching ideas whenever you need them.

This becomes an ongoing teaching resource rather than material you have to remember from one intensive weekend.

Prepare to Teach Complete Aerial Yoga Classes

The aim of the training is to prepare you to actually teach.

You will learn how to combine individual exercises and techniques into balanced classes incorporating strength, mobility, inversions, traditional yoga postures, playful movement, supported restorative work and relaxation.

You leave with both the practical skills and a substantial library of material from which to build your own classes.

    You do not need to be an acrobat. The emphasis is on intelligent movement, safe teaching and understanding how to use the hammock effectively

Training Options

In-Person Training in Vilnius

Train at Yoga Loftas in Vilnius in a small-group environment with plenty of practical teaching experience and individual feedback.

Aerial Yoga Teacher Training in the UK

Training is also offered periodically at selected yoga studios in the UK.

This allows teachers and students based in Britain to complete the practical training without travelling to Lithuania.

Online Training

An online option is available for students who cannot attend an in-person course, combining structured learning with extensive video material and guidance.

Your Teacher

The training is taught by Richard, whose aerial yoga work grew from years of experimenting with the yoga swing, teaching classes and developing methods for using the hammock safely, creatively and intelligently.

His approach combines technical understanding with something equally important: curiosity, playfulness and the experience of helping ordinary students discover what the aerial swing can make possible.
