  "Aerial Yoga" by >  Christopher Harrison 

https://upliftactive.com/pages/free-tutorials

https://upliftactive.com/pages/about-the-trainer   : < MONIQUE GHARIOS

 Master Yoga Teacher and course creator - Monique - is one of the first teachers in the world to learn Aerial Yoga directly under the maker of this style, Christopher Harrison. After completing this world renowned Anti-gravity training on-site, Master Monique found that there was a lot of opportunity to incorporate more traditional Yogic techniques, philosophy or practices. [THEN] Monique created a course to combine traditional Yogic techniques with Anti-gravity and fitness training.

"...   Health Considerations

Contraindications / Precautions: Whenever one is exercising the body, the process is one of building up, breaking down, and repairing. The objective is to break down tensions and scars in muscle tissue fiber, while creating more flexibility and elasticity in the joints and muscles. It is also to refresh the systems of the healing body without causing any additional harm. Often, one comes to yoga class in order to bring about healing that can be encouraged by this technique. However, sometimes their body is already in repair mode as they go through a healing crisis and requires monitoring by a health professional.  Listed below are some of the more obvious contraindications that one should be mindful of: Pregnancy, Glaucoma, Recent Surgery (esp. shoulder, eyes, back, hips, hand, wrist), Irregular Heart function, Very high or very low blood pressure, Easy onset Vertigo, Osteoporosis/bone weakness, Recent head injury, Fainting, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Severe arthritis, Sinusitis, Hiatal hernia, Disc herniation, Recent stroke, Cerebral Sclerosis, Botox (within 6 hours) While participating in AntiGravity techniques, you will be required to sign a waiver.  Should you choose to participate despite contraindications, please carefully monitor your own resistance. Listen to your body and know you are welcome to stop and be still at any point.  Your safety is our very first concern. Vertigo: Approximately 1% of the population experience vertigo to the extent where they cannot practice this technique.  Plan to feel a bit dizzy after inversions or swinging while your blood flow is being refreshed and your body is recalibrating. This is a natural occurrence. Go to a resting posture (such as Floating Child’s Pose, Chillax, Plum or BackLean) and breathe, it [vertigo?] will soon subside. The more you practice, the less this will occur. If you are uncomfortable for more than 10 seconds, lie down under the “Hammock” or go get a drink of water. Vertigo is a very real sensation for many people who suffer from a mild form of dyslexia that makes them uncomfortable when their hips are over their head. If this sounds familiar to you, go at your own pace and make your instructor aware so that you can receive extra attention. ..."

   Halasana ::  From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 hhhhhhhhh  hhhhhhhhhhh  

Etymology and origins[edit]

The completed pose resembles a traditional plough.

Description[edit]

The pose is entered from Sarvangasana (shoulderstand), lowering the back slightly for balance, and moving the arms and legs over the head until the outstretched toes touch the ground and the fingertips, in a preparatory variant of the pose. The arms may then be moved to support the back into a more vertical position, giving a second variant pose. Finally, the arms may be stretched out on the ground away from the feet, giving the final pose in the shape of a traditional plough.[4]

Variations[edit]

Suptakonasana is a reclining variant of Halasana.[5]

Cautions[edit]

Plough pose can put significant strain on the cervical spine, which does not normally undergo this type of stress, and can cause injury if not performed properly.[6][7][8]

       Yoga May Prevent Degenerative Disc Disease

 
  Is There Anyone Who Shouldn't do Yoga?

Yoga can be safe for everyone, but depending on the medical condition, certain poses may need to be modified or avoided. A couple of examples of patients who may need to avoid certain yoga poses include:

   1) Patients who have been diagnosed with advanced spinal stenosis should avoid extreme extension of the spine such as back bends in yoga.

  2) Patients with advanced cervical spine disease should avoid doing headstands and shoulder stands in yoga.

  3) Chinese people have been doing Yoga for centuries. Most of the precautions surrounding the yoga poses can be determined by understanding the specific medical condition, using common sense, and finding a good yoga teacher to assist.

Look in Dayton, OhiO - USA - for a very good YOGA teacher. Susan suggests "Crystal" - at the Kleptz YMCA.  ( Article continues below)

List of asanas  ::  Asanas 

A single asana is listed for each main pose, whether or not there are variations. Thus for Sirsasana (Yoga headstand), only one pose is illustrated, although the pose can be varied by moving the legs apart sideways or front-and-back, by lowering one leg to the floor, by folding the legs into lotus posture, by turning the hips to one side, by placing the hands differently on the ground, and so on. Iyengar's 1966 Light on Yoga lists 15 variations on the basic headstand, including for instance the combined variation Parivrttaikapada Sirsasana in which not only are the hips revolved but the legs are apart front-and-back.[10] Since then, variations of many other poses have been created.[11] Yin Yoga names are for the equivalent Yin variants; these are usually somewhat different from the conventional (Yang) poses.

The asanas are here named in English, spelt conventionally as in English books on yoga without diacritics, to facilitate free text search through the list using the 'Find in page' box (Control-F in many browsers).
