Moments D663: Flying with yoga

Today EQ and I tried something new.  New is exciting.  New can be nerve wracking.  New, when it comes to showing and sharing trust is even more exciting and nerve wracking!  And that is today's moment.  Sharing and showing trust.

Today EQ and I participated in a yogaFLIGHT session in Barrie.  It was worth the drive!  Not only was the experience incredible, so were the instructors Sky & Slade.

This was a new experience for EQ and I as a couple. Never before have we done something so interactive and new for us both. yogaFLIGHT is a style of a type of partner yoga exploring yoga practice through connection with another individual. It combines the youthful exuberance of a child (think about when you were young and you enjoyed airplane rides!) with the wonderful and healing benefits of yoga.  And how very accurate that description was!

A couple of great examples from our 2 hour adventure with Sky and Slade.


You can easily see how yogaFLIGHT is all about trust between the "base" and the "flyer".  And, it's all about communication.  

Not only did EQ allow me to fly, I managed to allow him to fly.  Yes!  I was a solid enough base to support him.  It was incredible!  We shared and showed trust for 2 hours in this session.  It was amazing to see, on yet another level, how EQ and I work together.  It was an empowering, experience that had as promised, the youthful exuberance of a child.  If you get the chance to experience yogaFLIGHT with Sky & Slade, I highly recommended it!
