Best Aerial Teachers In Singapore

Eager to know who made the list for best aerial yoga teachers in Singapore? We got you on this one. In this article, we help you find the best teachers in aerial & why they are so.

Do they go through aerial yoga teacher training?

Ever noticed that most of the aerial teachers are as well yoga trained as well? Do they all attend the same course? Well, there are about less than five organisations in Singapore that offer aerial program for students that want to start teaching silk hammocks, & we are exclusively partnered with the Singapore's leading course provider to provide training(not aerial yoga teacher training).

How many types of aerial teachers are there in Singapore?

There are various course for aerial as each of the course covers different aspects of the teacher training curriculum, they may include:

Most of the teacher course offered in Singapore for aerial yoga offer teacher training thus you would mostly attend a similar aerial class in almost any aerial studio/ locations you visit such as Jal yoga, Virgin active, club yoga, & platinum yoga to name a few. Unlike an aerial yoga teacher training course, aerial teacher training(fitness) takes on different demands in theory & practical classes. It is more rigorous as the aerial teacher needs to be conditioned to show how its done in a safe manner, & still, have fun. Keep in mind, that an aerial fitness teacher(hammock), yoga knowledge is not necessary prior to training to teach aerial fitness classes rather they will be learning tricks & how to incorporate fitness using the silk hammocks in the session.


Silk hammocks are closely related to Cirque du Soleil, where more tricks can be done for drops, wraps & choreography, but there is no training for silk hammock apart from the Integrated Training Institute, so this is why our teachers are known for the diversity of teaching styles, including aerial Yin, & of course restorative aerial classes, not only for yoga teacher. Certification process to be in the ranks of the best teacher in Singapore or Internationally will have to include not only silk hammock training but other styles as well.

What are the health benefits to aerial class?

Aerial provides you with much sensory feedback starting just by having the aerial silk on you, helps improve balance, grip strength, coordination, core strength, muscle endurance, & posture. Hanging upside down(inversion) with your silk also has plenty of benefits for your body especially for people with lower back aches/ pain. Spending time training upside down off the ground, get your visceral organs, & vestibular & sensory system shaken, & wakened. This is no necessarily a bad thing when you have been sitting down the whole day everyday!

What type of aerial session is good for me?

Keep in mind that it all depends on who is teaching & what you want our of a class. If you're one of the avid yoga practitioners, you would most probably enjoy an aerial yoga class, as it's a slower phase & there is mindfulness into the session.
An aerial fitness on the other hand, is more dynamic(we've been told it's more fun), the teacher will be able to teach a trick or two as an aerial fitness class is more on conditioning(think training for fitness) your body to getting you fit to do different styles of aerial flow & work into a pose. Aerial fitness depending on your abilities & the session of course how everyone is moving.
