What is a yoga towel used for?

A yoga towel, sometimes jokingly referred to as a "yoga hammock," is used for aerial yoga or "cloth yoga," a style in which the asanas are performed in or with the towel attached to the ceiling. Many yoga poses can be adapted for this type of practice.

Is a yoga towel tear-resistant and safe?

Yes, a yoga towel is very robust and tear-resistant, so it will support you safely during the exercises. The holders for the yoga towel are also very reliable when installed correctly. To ensure that you can practice and perform the asanas safely with the towel, you should learn aerial yoga from an experienced yoga teacher.

What are the special features of yoga with a yoga towel?

You really have to experience for yourself what it feels like to practice aerial yoga - it's just so special! In some asanas, the yoga towel gives you a feeling of security, envelops you and gives you support, but other asanas are more strenuous and demanding with the yoga towel than with normal practice.

Asana practice with yoga towel: more about Aerial Yoga

Aerial yoga is the "airy" yoga style that envelops you in a new experience - some say that only flying is better! Here, postures from Hatha yoga are transferred to practice in a yoga towel installed on the ceiling. In many postures, for example, you can consciously use gravity. Inverted postures, for example, are easier on the intervertebral discs and are experienced as very relaxing. Acrobatic elements and a playful touch - think of swinging in a yoga towel, for example - make aerial yoga a combination that appeals to many yogis and yoginis.

Similar to conventional yoga accessories , the aerial yoga cloth can make certain postures easier, but can also make for a more intensive practice. This applies, for example, to backbends, which you can easily go deeper into with a yoga cloth. In addition, the muscles are sometimes even more challenged in aerial yoga than in asana practice on the floor or on yoga mats - basically, aerial yoga is a real full-body workout, as the mobility and flexibility of the aerial yoga cloths means that the entire muscular system is constantly in action. The aerial yoga cloth also trains balance.

Shavasana in the Aerial Yoga Sling - heavenly!

A particularly beautiful experience is Shavasana, the final relaxation, in the aerial yoga cloth.

Comfortably wrapped in the yoga towel and supported by its soft fabric, the relaxation pose feels indescribably good.

Yoga towel or "yoga hammock"...

Oh yes, and of course: If you want to take the word "yoga hammock" literally - then why not let your soul dangle in your aerial yoga cloth outside of your yoga session? This way, your yoga cloth really becomes a yoga hammock.

Aerial Yoga and Fascia

Aerial yoga cloths provide light compression during practice, which can have a positive effect on the fascia tissue. An aerial yoga cloth therefore has a certain massage effect.

Great popularity: Aerial yoga has been trendy for several years!

Aerial yoga is still relatively new - but has been around for many years. The fascinating practice in the "yoga hammock" has been received with great enthusiasm by yoginis and yogis of various styles internationally. Many yoga studios and even large holiday clubs now offer aerial yoga.

Are there any tips on what to keep in mind when doing aerial yoga with a yoga towel?

Although aerial yoga slings are made of a comfortable material, it can be an advantage for some exercises to wear a top with sleeves instead of sleeveless tops, as the edges of the sling sometimes provide support under the armpits - here it is advisable to avoid direct friction on the skin. Otherwise, the same recommendations apply to aerial yoga as to other yoga classes: no heavy meals shortly before practicing and of course always consult your doctor if you have any health problems. Pregnant women should also always choose an adapted practice.
