Brighton AcroYoga Elemental Immersion with Erica Montes and Pascal Weis

Saturday, 12th March – Wednesday, 16th March 2016

AcroYoga blends the wisdom of yoga, the dynamic power of acrobatics, and the loving kindness of the healing arts. These three lineages form the foundation of a practice that cultivates trust, playfulness, and community.

AcroYoga is a community based practice. We ignite our collective potential as we support each other to reach new heights. It invites you to experience the full spectrum of your being through opportunities to give and receive, support and to be supported and be strong and sensitive. It is a systematic approach designed to be accessible to every practitioner and encourages personal transformation in an atmosphere of acceptance, celebration and safety.

This 5 day Immersion introduces the full range practice of AcroYoga. The mindfulness of yoga creates a steady foundation from which to explore the dynamism of acrobatics and the loving-kindness of Thai massage. The interplay of all three disciplines will empower everyone to embody the practice with grace, ease, and joy.

ABOUT THE TEACHERS:

Erica Montes RYT500 first worked with the body though performance art, acrobatics and theatre. She first encountered Yoga and meditation as a teenager and, after years working as an actor, found a common ground between her intensely disciplined theatre work and Eastern practices that promote mindfulness through physical motion. This sparked a lifelong interest in exploring conscious movement and the connection of mind, body and spirit. Her classes possess an elegant beauty and fluidity. They are the ideal vehicle to express the themes of harmony, balance, spirituality, joy and bliss. Erica completed her 500 hour Yoga certification with Edward Clark’s Tripsichore Yoga and is a certified level 2 AcroYoga teacher. She is also a Thai massage therapist and integrates the knowledge of this ancient healing tradition in her teaching.
