Do you always see people in the park balancing on each other’s feet and doing other beautiful figures while having lots of fun holding and balancing each other in the air? Would you like to try it out but don’t know how to start? Then you’ve come to the right place.

In this course, we take a playful approach to learning the basics of partner acrobatics – perhaps better known to you as AcroYoga. We will learn figures in lying and standing positions and try to link them together in sequences. You will be able to practise in all positions: As a base, as a flyer and, very importantly, as a support. Because this also needs to be learned and provides a safe framework so that we can engage with each other and the challenges with fun and trust.

In the course, we also playfully approach headstands and handstands step by step so that we can also practise figures in partner acrobatics where you feel comfortable and safe upside down. It is important to me to give you a clean technique so that you can build on this later to master more difficult figures and tricks.

No prior knowledge is required for this course. Just bring a willingness to try new things and a sense of fun.
You don’t have to register with another person, we will swap positions and players in the course anyway.

Clothing: Comfortable sportswear. In the winter months we recommend long training clothes for before and after the course.
