There is a deep sense of freedom attached to the concept of flying. Who has never had a dream to fly like a bird ? Aerial Yoga allows us to take off for few moments; it awakens the child within us who used to dare to explore the woods, climb the trees and splash around in water puddles. At the same time this practice makes us face some fears- of heights, of letting go...
I think this what I like the most in aerial yoga: those challenges, and the way we tackle them, can be transposed to our daily life and help us face the world with a deeper sense of confidence - the confidence of 5 year old wearing a Superman t-shirt ; )
