The reason you can't do crow probably isn't your arms.

To balance on your hands, your weight has to be over your hands. Not near them. Over them. Which means leaning forward past the point where it genuinely feels like you're about to land on your face.

Most people arrive at that exact edge, decide against it, and then try to hop their feet up instead. It never works, because the weight is still behind the hands and there's nothing to balance on.

The feet aren't something you lift. They get light on their own once you've gone far enough forward.

So the pose isn't really asking how strong you are. It's asking whether you'll commit to the bit that feels like falling.

Crow, forearm crow and split crow are the wildcards in the new sequences. Lading on Monday!

How far are you willing to lean?

Everyone talks about getting stronger. Almost nobody talks about feeling heavy.

Not heavy as in weight. Heavy as in compressed. The sitting, the training, the low hum of everything you’re carrying about - it stacks up, and it mostly lands in your spine.

Aerial is a suspension system. The hammock goes under you, so your body isn’t holding itself up any more, and inversions that are hard work on a mat become almost easy. Decompression without effort.
It builds grip, core and functional upper body strength, and people who come in with stiff, achy backs often leave saying it’s the best their spine has felt all week. It also pairs well with the mat classes - different demands, same body.

Never tried Aerail Yoga before? Make sure you book onto our next beginners course before attending our usual classes. No yoga experience needed for the course and nobody arrives able to do any of it. Our next beginners course is happening Sunday 13th September, 12pm - 3pm. See link in bio to book your place.

When did you last feel light?

Fifteen minutes ago, these faces looked very different.

Little weights that secretly weigh 50kg, tiny pulses that destroy your soul, and a squishy ball that Gwenny has somehow weaponised into an instrument of torture.

Then the gong, shavasana with a cold lavender towel, and the Friday post-Barre high hits.

Worth it? Absolutely.

Eight angle pose. The one that’s been quietly ruining everyone’s Tuesdays.

Hanna makes it look like a decision. For most of us it’s been closer to a negotiation, and the pose has been winning.

New sequences land Monday 7th September. Which means you’ve got a fortnight left with this one.

Has anyone actually got it yet?

“Being outside feels free.”

Sheffield does make it easy. Open spaces, decent views, a city that never quite commits to being one.

But the bit that stayed with us was what came after.

That being outside with someone changes how you are with them. You share the view, and somewhere in that you end up sharing more than the view.

Which is probably why the best conversations happen on a walk rather than across a table.

Who do you go out there with?

Some of you have spotted it. Some of you have asked. A few of you have watched Chris explain it to someone who didn’t ask.

It’s R1SE’s 3D body scanner. It builds a full model of you in about 2 minutes so you can see what’s actually happening inside, rather than guessing.

Live from 1st September. Free first scan for members.

How long before Chris talks you into a spin?

What if your best holiday wasn’t in a different time zone?

No flight delays. No overpriced resort food. Just good friends, local spots, and your own couch at the end of the night.

Stay local, keep your money, and make the most of what’s right outside your front door ✨

You don't need to know any of this to come to a class. But it does explain why Reformer feels harder than it looks.

Most training only really loads you in one direction. Up, out, push. The return journey is gravity's problem, and gravity is very generous.

A spring isn't. It's pulling the entire time, so the way back is as much work as the way out. No coasting, no bottom of the rep where you get a breather.

It's also why beginners who think they're taking it easy find they very much were not.

Chair test, be honest. Lower, or arrive?
