What exactly is aerial anyway?
Many people think aerial fitness and aerial yoga are simply doing a workout up off the floor in a hammock. They’re not! Although aerial does use a special hammock, it’s really much more about the technique used with the hammock that facilitates fitness transformation.
Together, the AntiGravity Hammock and AntiGravity Fitness technique facilitate movement in all spatial directions—with a wide range of health benefits. When it’s done right, aerial yoga and aerial fitness are a whole new way of unlocking movement so that you can break through limitations
A word about… Founder Christopher Harrison
One word? Innovator.
AntiGravity Fitness founder Christopher Harrison fused his love of the aerial performance arts with yoga and fitness, creating what is known today as aerial yoga and aerial fitness. He reimagined the aerial arts hammock as a tool for yoga and reconfigured it specifically for yoga and fitness, birthing the AntiGravity Fitness Hammock. Simultaneously, Harrison developed the AntiGravity aerial-fitness technique—the unique codified system and language of movement used today with the AntiGravity Hammock. The AntiGravity Fitness technique is how we use the hammock, coupled with the precise poses and sequences, to facilitate health and fitness transformation.

I was open to trusting the Hammock, and most of all, I felt very comfortable with learning and following your cues– as well as seeing your own strength and flexibility to demonstrate precisely. That said, you made me feel safe… and to let go!” – Carolyn, Canada
