13 Dec Try these Beginner Aerial Yoga Routines to Feel Amazing
Other than aerial dance, I also love using my aerial hammocks to advance in my flexibility training, and also to do relaxing stretches. If you are an aerial yoga fan, here you can find 7 beginner aerial yoga routines for different goals.
3 Full Body Routines for Beginners
I enjoy using the 10 minutes dynamic stretches and 10 minutes Full Body Morning Stretch as my pre-aerial warm up at times. When I have extra time, I like to give a self-care to stretch out my body with the 20 minutes stretches with the aerial hammock. These routines include stretches all the way from head to legs, with dynamic exercises to give you a light active workout and stretches at the same time.

You can begin with the easier and more relaxing 10 minutes Leg routine, before advancing to the 20 minutes Leg routine the next day.

Shoulders are complicated but super important for back bending. I highly recommend you to first try this 10 minutes shoulders flexibility routine :

A flexibility journey is a marathon, not a sprint. Some months I focus more on flexibility, but mostly I am distracted with aerial and strength training.
So I created a 1-month Morning Stretch challenge to focus on flexibility at the start of my days. If you are ready to challenge yourself, you can get started with the first routine here:
