Instructions

Today, I’m testing out Aerial Yoga Stretch & Sculpt at Class46 Yoga Studio in Anaheim, CA! This class combines yoga and aerial arts, using silk hammocks to help deepen stretches, strengthen the core, and improve balance. The studio itself is absolutely stunning—seriously, one of the most aesthetic spaces I’ve ever been in! But… my hammock didn't work, and let’s just say my inversions didn’t go as planned. 😅

✔️ The studio vibe & atmosphere ✨ ✔️ Class format (stretching, core, and inversions) 🧘‍♀️ ✔️ How challenging (or not) the workout was 💪 ✔️ My personal experience—highs and lows!

🔥 Thinking about trying aerial yoga? Watch to see if this class is for you!
