Flying has always been a dream of humanity. We’ve been fascinated with soaring high above the clouds for centuries. And while it may not be possible to fly like a bird physically, we can achieve that same feeling of weightlessness and freedom through yoga and aerial yoga. Learning to fly on the mat and in the silk is an incredible journey that can help you find balance, both physically and mentally.
The first step in learning to fly is understanding the importance of balance. Yoga is all about finding that sweet spot between effort and ease. It’s not about pushing yourself too hard but giving it your all. When you find that perfect balance, everything feels effortless, whether holding a challenging pose or simply breathing deeply. That balance can also translate into other aspects of your life, helping you find a sense of calm and focus.
One of the most exciting ways to explore balance in yoga is through arm balances. When you first see someone holding a pose like crow or handstand, it can seem impossible. But with practice and dedication, you can learn to fly as well. The key is to start small and work your way up, building strength and confidence in stages. You might begin with poses like plank and dolphin, then progress to crow and firefly, and finally work on more advanced poses like handstand or forearm stand. Every step will help you build confidence, strength, and balance.
Inversions are another powerful way to explore the feeling of flying on the mat and in the silk. When you turn your world upside down, it can be both exhilarating and terrifying. But the benefits are endless. Inversions can help boost circulation, calm your mind, and build core strength. They can also help you develop a sense of trust in your body’s abilities.
One of the most important things to remember when learning to fly is that it’s not about perfection. You will fall. You will wobble. But you’re building resilience and strength every time you get back up. The journey is just as important as the destination, and every step along the way is an opportunity to learn, grow, and discover yourself. That’s the true beauty of yoga and the magic of learning to fly.
