Aerial Yoga is definitely one of the more adventurous exercise classes I’ve ever experienced. My co-worker and I did it at Om Factory NYC as a team building event and it’s safe to say it is something we won’t soon forget! It’s a really cool class that made me feel like some type of clumsy and unbalanced aerobatic gymnast. Regardless, I totally recommend trying it- especially if your fitness routine is getting boring. It stretches out a lot of tight places that are usually tough to stretch out and there’s a pretty awesome sense of accomplishment after doing a class like that. At least I felt like a BOSSSSSS. Kinda ill, but still very boss. 
Now, being that this class is pretty unique, I had a lot of thoughts while doing it. Here’s some of the thoughts I had- aside from whether I was doing anything correctly- while swinging around, getting slightly nauseous, in my soft hammock:
How did anyone ever come up with this concept?
Haha I’m up in the airrrrr y’all
Ouch. Ouch. Ouch.
This is not comfortable.
Flipping time!
Owwwww. I think I twisted my arm off. But I think I played it off fine…
What did she [the instructor] just do?!?
Nope. Not doing that.
Oh sh*t I did it!!!
I’m upside down b*tches!
Anyone else feel sick?
I’m about to pass out. I may puke. Room spinning.
Keep it together Chelsea!
OoOooo, this is a good stretch.
… is anyone ready to get out of this position now?
Ah this one’s chilllll… class must be over soon…
I feel safe in a cocoon…
Are these hammocks clean?
No, wait. I feel claustrophobic…
NAMASTE PEOPLE NA-MAS-TEEEEEEEE
I’m going to be sore tomorrow.
My tummy does not feel good… really glad I didn’t have like a burrito for lunch!

This looks SO awesome!!! I don’t know that I could ever do it, but it sure looks awesome! http://www.ourfoodieappetite.com/zynodoa-restaurant-review-staunton-va/
Thanks! You could deffff do it- you just need a friend to make you go. And the instructor can take care of the rest!
I tried this at Wanderlust last year and freaking loved it!! Can’t find any studios near me though. Looks like you guys had fun 🙂
