Don’t scroll just yet, you can do “manic panic” with your hands connected for the whole whip-pop-ish trick!We plan to do reverse tarzan to rocking chair next. What version will you do?>> We always make sure to explain what we do so you can follow along! Save this reel or send it to your friend so you can master it later on! <<1️⃣ Rocking chair: Sit more on the feet of the base than on shins. Lean back and relax! (Actually grab the heels and go to straddle bat)😅🤷2️⃣ Push into reverse bird softly but steady. Try to give your flyer a tittle airtime on the highest point. Wait with the pop until they are in straddle shape again.‼️For the progression keep your hands connected until landing and push your flyer upwards with it‼️Base should bring the knees higher than heels, so the flyer can slide onto the base’s feet.3️⃣ You did a few clean with hands connected? Try to let go of the hands at the very last moment before the pop. No real magic here, just make sure your have enough rotation so you don’t need your hands anymore to give your flyer’s chest extra height while landing this cool acroyoga move!>>Did this help you?

Is this the next intermediate acroyoga flow you will try?!🤸🤼‍♀️We love this flow as it is build of basic moves and poses, but exceeds through the combination of those.>> We always make sure to explain what we do so you can follow along! Save this reel or send it to your friend so you can master it later on! <<TIPSWhen you go from kneeling (with pre-roll to backbend) try to aim as close to the base’s kneecaps as possible so you have enough room for the roll.Both of you should hold onto the leg(s) for as long as you need until you feel saveSitting on the legs? Try to split as much as possible so the base can grab your legs and push into it so you can slide slowly into the armpits>>Did this help you? You gave it a try? Need further instructions?

We have a tutorial for every move in this reel! Depending when you see this - I have to upload the last missing tutorial from part 1 first 😅😇 Are those still beginner moves or how would you categorize? Intermediate already?>> We always make sure to explain what we do so you can follow along! Save this reel or send it to your friend so you can master it later on! <<WE HAVE TUTORIALS1. Throne-Spin ✅2. Kneeling Maria 🔜3. Free-Star (or star if you keep hands) ✅4. Bird to Bird Pop ✅Okay throne-spin might be slightly more advanced, but if you feel comfortable in throne already you should give it a try. Having a spotter makes a whole lot of a difference! (Check for the pink outdoor video Janine and I did for detailed instructions)>>Did this help you? You gave it a try? Need further instructions?

The perfect acroyoga reel doesn’t exist … wait! 😅Not sure this claim is valid, but THIS audio matching the loop perfectly feels kinda satisfying! 😇>> send this reel to your acroyoga partner so you can try the rising back whip later <<TIPS:🧙‍♂️Base has to do only one thing! Flat feet all the way! Resist the urge to point. Flexing your feet helps the flyer to rotate.🛫 Flyer get your feet above your head and tuck as late as possible! The better you do this the more rotation and upswing you will generate>>Did this help you? You gave it a try? Need further instructions?

Trying acroyoga tricks I see online episode 45281 😇(I assume you send this to your acroyoga partner so you can never come back to it like I do most of the times 😅)This post is kinda special for me as it is the first piece of content I throw at you since partnering with @theacroback I saw their foldable & magnetic (😍) acro pillow on festivals before and was thrilled to be asked by them to team up. Testing it for almost a month now and I really like it. Feels super sturdy and small enough to throw it into my bag with all my camera gear, no problem.If you don’t have a pillow yet (or just want to treat yourself) consider using the link in my bio so they know you came from this place 😅🫶#acroyoga #acro #yoga #acroyogatutorial #acroyogafun #acrobackinthewild #acroyogabeginners #acroyogainspiration by @acrowithjan

Management asked for the quarterly performance report and I sent this! Send this to your „acro-coworker“ who deserves a raise. 📈🤷Took me a while to find the motivation to edit my quarterly acroyoga report as I’m still kinda sick - was more fun than doing an actual report for sure!

I don’t quite remember what the variation is called.Tricks in order of apperance: xyz, log pop 360, castaway, courbette, link into logpop 180, tarzan to throne to whale sequence, handsfree mortalito, 360 piourette, log 360, american to f2f, corbet, castaway, back tuck, rising backwhip, front tuck, castaway, h2f to american?, handstand to throne, tarzan to whale, handbird to throne #acroyoga #acro #acroinspiration #acroyogalove #acroyogafun #dortmundbouldert by @acrowithjan

Your muscles will thank you for this. So what does „strong arms“ actually mean in acroyoga? 🧐You often hear us shout STRONG ARMS from the other end of the room and you know this was meant for you 😉>> send this reel to your favorite acroyogi so they know we give tips on acroyoga all the time <<We don’t mean you should come back stronger after some gym session. We want you to lock your elbows and be efficient with your power.By doing this your bones will channel the weight of your flyer into the floor and bypass some of the power needed.Watch closely how I keep my arms and elbows straight as my flyer pushes herself up into throne.>>Did this help you?

Here is how you train this cute acroyoga Icarian pop from handstand to throne. 💪🚀Good news, you don’t have to be able to hold a handstand on your own - being able to hold it for 5-10 seconds leaning against the wall is enough!>> We always make sure to explain what we do so you can follow along! Save this reel or send it to your friend so you can master it later on! <<Have a spotter for this one! 🙏1️⃣ When going from handbird to handstan the trick here is to bring the hands forward already committed to go for it. Hesitation makes it harder. (The base should push gentle into it to help the flyer get up to height)2️⃣ Have the hands close to the base. When faking back to bird the flyer needs to stay stiff until the very last moment - fall like a log. Base, bring your hands forward and up. Never have your hands lift behind your own shoulders.3️⃣ Going for the pop? Flyer stay in shape, base push as stable but hard as you can. Have 70% weight on your arms and pop with 30% of your legs!Receive softly. Say it again. Receive softly.😅🫶>>Did this help you? You gave it a try? Need further instructions?

With this trick you can skip leg-day from time to time, although you shouldn’t! 😈😅When it comes to log-pops in acroyoga, leg power is a must have. AM I RIGHT? NO! 💌 Send this reel to every base you know so we can spread the word! 🤗I felt ashamed to use my hands to push my own legs so I got enough power in the beginning. Kira calling it a BOOST instead of a CHEAT CODE kinda rewired my brain of how I think about it. And so should you!#acroyoga #acro #yoga #acroyogatutorial #acroyogalove #acroyogabeginners #acroyogainspiration by @acrowithjan

One of those acroyoga poses is a challenge for the Base & one for the Flyer! 🔥I’d love to say „Bases an Flyers love us equally“Not so sure after this post anymore 😅>> Send this to your bestie so they can mentally prepare before you meet next time <<🏁TIPSBoth poses need a good setup of mats or a spotter to be safe ☝️Free star: The base should stand on the flyer‘s shoulders. (Not so close to the neck as usual)Flyer, rotate your arms and press into the heels of the base to have some control over your balance!Counterbalance star: Base bring your hands all the way back onto the flyer‘s shoulderblades to make sure they can’t slip/flip over. Flyer stay small and keep your arms extended to make it easier but also more predictable for your base.>>Did this help you? You gave it a try? Need further instructions?

How many reels have you “saved”? 💰🦹‍♂️We stole the “shin-slide” some time ago from @doubleup_acro and mixed it up a bit.Would love to see someone sequence our reel from ninja star onwards, maybe we can build a very lenghty community flow 🤗🤩Quick help:-Base try to receive steady and make sure your ankle is higher than your knee so your flyer doesn’t roll off-Flyer try to keep your arms in front of your body so you stay high and keep room below to handle the hand & foot switchEnjoy this move & check those guys out!@lloydie_upfullness @planetflora #acroyoga #acro #yoga #acroinspiration #acroyogabeginners #acroyogatutorial by @acrowithjan
