Restorative Aerial Yoga focuses the mind inward as it floats the body through a series of gentle poses. Unlike an aerial flow that places the hammock about hip height, Restorative Aerial places the hammock less than 10 inches off the ground. Each pose will be held for a few minutes to deeply open the entire spine, hips and connective tissues of the body. No flipping involved!

Flow & Fly’s Restorative Aerial training contains 60 postures and will provide a framework for sharing this practice with others. In this course, you will become a certified aerial yoga teacher and learn how to safely share this yoga practice with others of all levels.

You can expect:

• To improve your own aerial yoga practice! Learn how to use the hammock as a prop to support the body in Yin and Restorative postures.
• To learn Aerial Anatomy (physical and energetic bodies), modifications and variations that you can share with students to make this practice accessible to all.
• To learn Pranayama/breathing techniques, hands-on assists, and an introduction to Sen lines and hot stone application to deepen relaxation.
• To explore the range of this practice! From more intense yin postures to restorative, relaxing decompression of the body.
• To find your teaching voice: find the confidence needed to make this practice encouraging, fun and safe.
• To have access to Traci Tufano, Jessie Hill, and the rest of the Flow & Fly network to support you in your teaching journey.
• To be inspired and create some magic!

This training has no prerequisites and is perfect for any level!

In Sound Immersion Two, we will take all the basics we learned in the level one training and dive deeper. Besides the topics list below we will also explore the power of the voice with singing circle exercises, and using the voice with heartfelt intention and its power to heal the human energy system. In this training, you will develop your own personal mantra and learn what note we naturally vibrate…our soul’s tone. Time will be allowed to explore more your own personal interests and calling. If you never plan to give private or group healing sessions, it’s okay. You will still learn valuable ways to use your instruments to heal yourself and others.

Topics covered:

Himalayan Bowls – Learn where they come from, how they were made, how to play them, and the many ways to use them for personal or professional applications.

The Gong – Gongs 26″ and larger have great healing potential. Experience and learn first hand how they release tension, awaken intuition, and can take us into an altered state.

Various Percussion Instruments – Become acquainted with many additional tools like Chimes, the heartbeat of a Drum, tuning forks, crystal pyramid, Shruti box, and more!

Tuning Forks – Precision-calibrated tuning forks are applied to specific acupuncture points to access the meridian and chakra energy systems. The sound waves of the forks vibrate and travel deeply into the body. Their rich resonance and vibration connects with and supports the body’s natural frequencies, stimulates and balances the physical and subtle energy field, and promotes wellness and deep inner harmony.

Crystal & Himalayan Bowl Layouts – Receive the basic understanding of sacred geometry and the crystal bowl lay outplayed in the 5th harmonic. Also, learn the deeply nurturing Himalayan bowl treatment and protocol.

Personal Sound Healing Session & Protocol – Step by step we will review all that’s required for a nourishing and successful private sound healing session….from intake, instrument placement, invocation, and administering sound.

Patricia will guide each student in selecting your personal instruments, plan a flow and theme for Group Sound Sessions, and demonstrate a session for students.

Learn Ancient Tones to:

• Reveal the Gifts of your Soul
• Activate the Pineal Gland, and more!
