Benefits and functions of aerial yoga: Which is better, aerial yoga or ground yoga?

Aerial yoga is a sport that we are all familiar with, but most people do more ground yoga. Aerial yoga is relatively rare. So we need to understand the benefits and effects of aerial yoga. Which one is better, aerial yoga or ground yoga?

Practicing aerial yoga can make you calmer, boost your confidence, and make you more graceful. Due to the nature of aerial yoga, almost all parts of the body are forced to move and stretch. It can also speed up the heartbeat and the circulation of oxygen-rich blood, thereby enhancing our blood circulation. Some aerial yoga movements can make the body more flexible, and can also appropriately relieve stress and enhance immune function. Aerial yoga allows your adrenaline to operate under the action of gravity. It also releases "happy" hormones such as serotonin, endorphins, oxytocin, and dopamine, which can boost your mood and help you feel more energetic. Yoga can help you control your mind. It can help you lose weight. Yoga inversions can reverse the effect of gravity and keep facial muscles from relaxing. It reduces wrinkles and naturally flattens the skin.

Aerial yoga, as a new yoga practice, is not well known to the public. However, as various fitness institutions introduce aerial yoga into fitness training courses, aerial yoga has gradually become a fitness method loved by urban white-collar workers. Aerial yoga is quite different from traditional ground yoga. Although many basic movements of aerial yoga are developed from the basic movements of ground yoga, the biggest difference between aerial yoga and ground yoga is that aerial yoga is practiced under anti-gravity. Aerial yoga is not practiced on the ground like ground yoga, but uses tools such as hammocks to hang people in the air for yoga practice. Therefore, aerial yoga is more difficult and challenging than ground yoga. Aerial yoga uses the assistance of hammocks to help yoga practitioners overcome gravity and complete many difficult movements by hanging. Because it is off the ground, it is necessary to overcome its own gravity, so it is also called "anti-gravity yoga". Aerial yoga uses aerial yoga hammocks to complete yoga poses.

It is suitable, as long as the range of motion is not too large, and then a professional teacher will provide detailed guidance and take safety measures. However, aerial yoga requires a lot of strength, and yoga beginners may not be able to handle it. Unlike the traditional yoga handstand, the upward movement of the anti-gravity course is completed in a weightless state. Cutoro said: "Because the pressure on the spine is zero, anti-gravity yoga has a very good medical effect. It is a new type of yoga that combines the three principles of gravity, centripetal force, and anti-gravity. The power principle comes from physical kinematics. Unlike traditional yoga on the ground, it uses a rope hammock as a bed, combines the traditional Hatha yoga postures, combined with Chinese medicine massage techniques, the harmony of Tai Chi, the power of Pilates, and the elegance of dance with yoga postures, helping practitioners to complete all aerial yoga postures with half the effort.

Without professional training, if you practice yoga by yourself without understanding it, you will experience nausea and dizziness. In severe cases, it may cause breathing problems and even sore limbs. After practicing for a while, you will find that your joints will be very uncomfortable. Therefore, when practicing yoga, you must not only choose the correct way to practice, but also find a professional yoga studio. If you are a beginner, you must go to a professional yoga studio to practice. Only when you have mastered the breathing coordination method in yoga and made the correct asanas, you can practice yoga at home.
