AcroYoga Mini Workshop with Mercedes Saulsbury, ERYT 500, Certified AcroYoga Teacher – October 2019

Solar dynamic postures & transitions, and lunar therapeutic flight

Benefits of this program:

  • community building
  • body awareness
  • building self-confidence
  • establishing trust
AcroYoga is a physical practice that blends yoga, acrobatics, and Thai massage. It is practiced in pairs or groups of three in a safe and supportive environment. AcroYoga is all about creating community in which you need others to practice. The three roles of the practice are: base, flyer, and spotter. The base is the foundation offering support and guidance to the flyer. The flyer transitions from one yoga posture to the next while supported by the base. The spotter selflessly gives attention and support to the base and flyer to aid in trust and communication between the two. It takes all three to make a community!
The practice of AcroYoga has two sides, solar and lunar. The solar side focuses on dynamic acrobatic transitions, helping us cultivate self-confidence, the ability to communicate with others fast and efficiently, as well as the ability to take calculated risks and smart decisions under pressure. The lunar side incorporates Thai massage with therapeutic postures to provide healing and relaxation, cultivating in trust, and the ability to let go of control. The practice of AcroYoga acknowledges the duality of life: the masculine and the feminine, the ying and the yang, the lunar and solar energies within our beings.
Try this beautiful and healing practice! ✨💚

About Mercedes Saulsbury, E-RYT 500, Certified AcroYoga Teacher, Meditation teacher, Reiki Master, Thai massage practitioner, Intuitive Healer

My passion is to help others heal through yoga, reiki, AcroYoga, Thai massage, meditation and educational wellness workshops and retreats. My own journey with yoga inspired me to deepen my practice and to then share my passion for this practice with others on their journey. As a teacher, I encourage students to turn inward during their practice to experience self inquiry, getting comfortable outside of their comfort zone, and to be an observer of their bodies and minds. My mission is to create a safe space for creative exploration. I aim to cater to the physical needs of the students while making sure to deliver a practice that intends to unify the mind, body, and soul in a safe and supportive environment. My intention is to inspire learning and growth in the practice and for students to leave feeling better than when they arrived.
