Where are all my acro yogis at?? 
Great news my friends! As some of you know Kaelyn, Jair and I have been trying to establish a little acro yoga community in this great city of ours.
Recently we’ve had the opportunity to practice with various people with acro yoga and circus training and it seems like we might actually be able to get a nice little acro yoga community going.
We’ve secured some dates at the Yoga Sanctuary on the Danforth and we’re hoping that once we get this going it will become a weekly or biweekly jam session.
Our preliminary vision is such (always looking for suggestions and ideas
Anyone who has some experience with Acro Yoga (or similar type of practice) is welcome to join. The sessions will have some structure but it will also be somewhat informal encouraging people to play and to try new things. We are hoping to bring in some special guest teachers every once in a while as well
Partners are not necessary since we’ll be mixing groups up. The warm ups will include partner and group yoga …from there anything goes!
Given this open structure we are asking that anyone joining us does have a little bit of experience in the practice to ensure we all practice mindfully and most importantly safely.
We are initially setting up the TWO HOUR sessions as PAY WHAT YOU CAN and we are going to suggest a donation of $10 to help cover some of the studio and organization costs
For those of you just coming across this post with the intention of trying the practice, please stay tuned for our upcoming “Intro To Acro” workshop schedules in the city.

Hey! I am so happy to hear that there is some acro yoga in toronto happening! Sadly, Saturday nights I can never make it out. If ever it happens on another night, I would be there with BELLS on!

Hey guys, great work! Is the jam session still happening this Saturday (Dec. 19th)? Also I don’t have any circus training, but I did love the few acro classes I took when I was in San Francisco this fall, and I maintain a regular yoga practice. Are newbies like me welcome to the jam?

Hi Dan,
We just ran an intro to acro yoga workshop at the Toronto Yoga conference. Our next one will probably be in June at Iam Yoga. We might add something else in the meantime, so keep in touch and check our blog once in a while.
Thanks!

Hi there,
Hopefully you have some introductory classes coming up soon.. I have been practicing Hatha and Bikram for the last four years and have been dying to give Acro yoga a try!

Interested in the next acroyoga jam session. I thought it was originally Nov 12, but now it looks like it is on the 21st? Did I just reversed the numbers? Funny, maybe I was looking at a different yoga studio web site? Anyway, can I reserve 2 spaces, and pay when we get there?
Thanks,
Nan
