About VAYU Pre-Training


The VAYU pre-training course will be an intensive workshop, with the purpose of giving you a kinesthetic and somatic experience, as well as familiarizing yourself with the VAYU system. 


VAYU Aerial Yoga helps people connect inward on a deeper level, in a fluid and organic way. We start with the pelvis, the center, and create space by shedding the layers of tension in order to be aware of 

the sensations in our body, calming and nourishing our central nervous system.


Using breath and the support of the fabric as a tool, we get to the connective tissue allowing it to free from the fascia and let go of adhesions, so when we start working more muscularly the body will be open structurally and energetically.


This intensive course is a journey ,open to anybody interested in exploring the body, allowing gravity and the use of the fabric to support this process, connecting and finding pleasure in moving. 


The course is 4 days and we work for a total of 20hours. 

Every day we will start with a class 90 minutes and then we will use the rest of the time to break down the material, learn, 

practice hands to be able to feel the benefits and the depth of the practice.
