What is therapeutic flying?

Therapeutic flying is a movement practice created through a meeting of acro-yoga and thai massage. It is a mixture of massage and therapeutic touch, playful partner movement and an explorative dance of connecting with your partner.

As the name suggests you are flying! When receiving you experience weightlessness as the giver supports your body in unique ways using gravity to create a deep relaxed feeling like no other.

Why practice?

There is an opportunity to experience and build a deep level of connection and trust between the partners practising. You will awaken your inner child through getting upside down and playing! This powerfully accesses the parasympathetic nervous system to enable our bodies innate healing.

In a structural sense, the practice is unmatched for creating space in the body, lengthening the spine and tractioning the body, making it an excellent treatment for lower back pain, psoas pain, neck pain and other pain caused by excessive holding or tension.

What we will learn & explore:

Exercises to build strength & body awareness transferable to the practice

Fun partner movement games

Flying therapeutic moves

Elements of therapeutic touch

Give & receive a guided bodywork sequence
