Who works out on the floor these days? That was so last year. This year, it’s all about aerial exercising. And why not? This latest fitness trend is not only going to look great on your Instagram feed, but classes are amazing for improving strength and providing an overall killer workout. Classes where you have to suspend your body mid-air while performing different postures and stretches forces you to engage your core and hold tight.
Safe to say, exercising will never be the same again after your first aerial class. There’s something about working out mid-air that puts a whole new spin on everything (literally). Get ready for a full-body workout that’s going to tone your muscles something crazy. We will have you running off with the circus in no time.
