ABOUT ACRO YOGA 757

Acro Yoga 757 Group Poses

 The term “Acro Yoga” has become an embodiment of all sorts of activities: Yoga, Partner Acrobatics, Thai Massage, AcroBeast Partner Workouts, Healing Arts, Slackline, Yoga Swings, Poi, Circus Arts, Lyra, Silks, Trapeze, Juggling, and all sorts of fun crazy activities. Our events and classes take place in either Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, and the surrounding Hampton Roads area of Virginia in the area code of 757 – hence the name.

We are just a bunch of crazy fun people gathering together to have fun and safe exercise within the realm of AcroYoga. All participants make up the collective group “Acro Yoga 757” as a whole with each person contributing to the safe and fun environment to create our own OHANA or Acro Family.
Acro participants called AcroYogis – or we also like to call ourselves Monkeys – come from all sorts of shapes, sizes, and backgrounds: yoga, circus, cheer, dance, fitness, pole, acrobatics, crossfit, and sometimes people just walking by wondering what the heck we are doing.

Partners are not necessary, we have plenty of people to work with you. Beginners are always welcome and encouraged. We all have a love for fun exercise that helps brings everyone together for a common goal:
Have Fun, Be Safe, Fly, and most of all … HAVE FUN!!
