Who Is This Training For?
🌸 For those who are curious about aerial yoga but have felt hesitant — ready to gently step into something new, supported and uplifted.
🌸 For yoga practitioners and teachers who wish to deepen their personal practice, exploring the hammock as a tool for growth, creativity, and exploration.
🌸 For those who feel a quiet pull to share their love of aerial yoga with others — not just teaching poses, but offering an experience of lightness, trust, and discovery.
🌸 For aerialists and instructors seeking to reconnect with their own practice, refine their understanding, and rediscover the joy and wonder of movement in the air.
🌸 For anyone longing to step out of their usual routine, open up to new possibilities, and connect more deeply — with a supportive community, and with the most meaningful connection of all: the one with themselves.

Hi, I’m Smile, your guide for this Aerial Yoga Teacher Training!
My Aerial journey wasn’t love at first flight—my first two classes were two years apart, and I left with bruises. What brought me back? My daughter, Zoey. She loved it so much that I added Aerial to my studio for her—and eventually, I fell in love too.
I’m a mom, yoga teacher, and owner of Moonshine Yoga. I believe the best teachers stay curious—and I’m excited to learn alongside you.
Let’s fly together!

AYTT FAQs
The Moonshine Yoga AYTT offers so much more than a standard Aerial yoga training! Here’s what makes our program unique:
🌟 Diverse teaching focus — You’ll learn how to teach not just adults, but also kids’Aerial classes, partner Aerial, and creative variations that expand your teaching range.
🌟 Extensive repertoire — You will learn over 30 Aerial sequences and transitions plus how to apply three different teaching templates, giving you flexibility and confidence to design your own classes.
🌟 Studio-based advantage — Moonshine Yoga is a dedicated Aerial yoga studio with 3 locations  so completing your training here gives you priority access for teaching opportunities and faster pathways to being hired as an Aerial yoga instructor with us (pending availability and audition).
By training with us, you step into a supportive, creative, and professional aerial community that’s ready to help you grow.
No problem! You do not need years of Aerial experience to join our Aerial Yoga Teacher Training. We welcome students with a strong interest in learning, an open mind, and a regular movement or yoga practice — even if you’re new to the aerial hammock.
If you’re brand new, we recommend taking a few beginner aerial classes before the training starts. This will help you familiarize yourself with the hammock, the sensations, and the basic movements. If you are not a current studio member, please reach out to the studio to get access and set up booking for classes before training. We are happy to help you get started!
That’s absolutely okay! While this is a teacher training program, you do not need to plan on teaching to benefit from it. Many students join for personal growth, to deepen their practice, build confidence in the hammock, and explore aerial yoga more fully.
Be prepared for a physically engaging training experience! This program includes:
✅ Two Aerial classes per day
✅ Hands-on practice in the hammock
✅ Teaching drills to refine your skills
✅ Lectures to deepen your knowledge
We recommend that you get plenty of rest before each training weekend and bring snacks and meals to keep your energy up throughout the day. The training is demanding, but it’s also designed to build your strength and confidence in the hammock — you’ll be amazed at your growth!
The main cost is the tuition fee, which covers your training sessions, manual/materials, and certificate upon completion.
However, additional costs may include:
✅ Any personal gear you choose to purchase (such as your own hammock for home practice — optional)
✅ Travel, accommodations, or meals if you’re coming from out of town (if applicable)
