Why try Trapeze yoga? Hereās 8 read why.
First Yoga Trapeze Class
1. Youāll see people of all flexibility levels.
A common misconception about all of yoga, not just the Yoga Trapeze, is that itās for the flexible. However, itās more for the inflexible. That is, no one expects you to be doing full Wheel pose and flying splits your first try.
The whole point of trying a workout program is to work on strength and flexibility, little by little. Give yourself tons of patience and allow the poses to come to you⦠and they will!
2. But you may get dizzy at first.
Youāre going to be putting your body through some new experiences, causing some discomfort. It takes around 3 classes to get āused toā going upside down, so know that feeling lightheaded after your first or second time inverting is totally normal. I promise that you will get used to it.
3. The rig is not going to break.
I know lots of people look at the flying contraption and think: holy moly what if it breaks? Iāll admit the thought crossed my mind before I got to know how it all operates.
The fabric is made of the same material as a parachute and the entire trapeze line has been weight tested to support up to 350 pounds, so rest assured there are no issues with breaking or falling from the ceiling during classes.
4. It isnāt ALL about fancy inversion poses!
Of course, the yummy inversions are the core of relieving back pain using the Yoga Trapeze; however, an hour-long class will often begin with some mat-based warm-ups, some use of the main sling to do assisted Warrior poses and other openers, and use of the handles for āflyingā pigeon pose, and other stretches.
The Yoga Trapeze is great for practicing assisted backbends and hanging upside down but many students love using it for flexibility training and having fun.
5. Itās NOT an aerial silks class.
Silks and trapezes share lots in common and are both wonderful workouts! But aerial classes have the slings much higher from the ground and are usually for experienced dancers or performers. If aerial silks look fun but intimidating, you can try a trapeze class first.
6. No one expects you to do it all.
You will encounter a pose or two you are not comfortable even attempting. Then donāt do it! I mustāve skipped three or four poses during my first class, and Iām no stranger to yoga.
You will notice that even the most difficult poses are taken in steps. Do all the steps you are comfortable doing and you just may end up doing something you didnāt think you were capable of! If not, either wait for the instructor to come to assist you or just take a break where you feel a good stretch and enjoy it there.
7. Other students are very supportive.
I canāt speak for every studio with certified Trapeze instructors but in my experience, other students who have been in many classes are happy to help you get into a pose if the instructor is with someone else. Iāve have seen and heard verbal encouragement with a āyou can do itā during class from other students
These arenāt your typical yin yoga classes where you must be silent and obedient. There is no religion involved. Itās about having fun and working toward a stronger version of yourselfāhowever you choose to do so.
8. Your back will feel great.
Even after just one class, if youāve managed to go upside down for a few minutes itās enough time to gain traction on your spine and decompress the pressure thatās been causing you back pain. Warning: you may also feel sore the next day! But in a good way š
