Defy gravity in zero compression inversions and take a sip of the fountain of youth!

What is AntiGravity Yoga?

AntiGravity Yoga is a total-body workout created by former gymnast, aerial performer and Broadway choreographer Christopher Harrison.  The inspiration behind AntiGravity Yoga comes from a number of techniques that pull together exercises and poses from methods such as calisthenics, yoga, strength training, Pilates, dance and acrobatics all performed with a silk hammock apparatus.  Christopher Harrison’s AntiGravity Hammock allows the body to move freely in all directions of open space with proven, step-by-step techniques. The zero-compression inversions allow your spine to lengthen, opening up space in both the body and the mind.  The silk hammock provides support allowing the body to safely move into postures with no pressure on the joints.

The benefits of AntiGravity Yoga 

In addition to decompressing the spine the benefits of AntiGravity yoga are a big stress reliever. When you turn your body upside-down you send fresh blood to the face it’s anti-aging! If you have ever been on an inversion table you will jump for joy at what the Harrison Hammock does for the body.  AntiGravity allows sufferers of back and neck issues to find immediate relief. Practitioners of AntiGravity every will find that the body feels instantly better after just one session.  Along with improved flexibility and strength in the entire body especially the core, you will find that you gain a deeper awareness of the body.  Kristen Lemoine describes it as ‘not just a workout but more of an experience and a deepening of the mind-body-spirit.’

It’s not Just for Yogis

Safely move into postures with qualified instructors.

AntiGravity is for everyone in every age bracket.  Our clients range from the ages of 9 years old to well into their 70’s.  Gravity and Antigravity are actually complimentary opposites, both required in order to move. We can’t fight gravity but we can have fun playing within the forces to obtain better overall health and
wellness.

Moving Freely in Open Space

As Christopher Harrison explains it. “The body and the mind are interconnected. The mind always knows what the body is doing just as every action of the body influences thought. Christopher Harrison has created with AntiGravity an accessible methodology for moving the body in all directions of open space freely including upside down, which in turn frees the mind.  In AntiGravity everyone is capable, and it happens within the context of fitness.”
