About this Event

🧘‍♀️ Acroyoga Learning Lab: Take Flight Tuesdays

Never Too Grown Up For Play — Discover Acroyoga

📅 Every Tuesday · 7:00–8:30 PM
📍 Ripley-Grier Studios, 520 8th Ave (Midtown NYC)
💵 Free during April (donations welcome; normally $25)


✨ Your midweek lift

Whether you’re brand new or already hooked, this class is your weekly chance to fly, play, and connect.
No partner required—just curiosity and a sense of adventure.


💪 What to expect

Each class blends:

  • Guided warmups and partner drills
  • Flow sequences for different levels
  • Spotting, progressions, and bailing drills to build confidence

You’ll learn to base (lift), fly (be lifted), and spot (support others) while improving body awareness, communication, and teamwork.

You don’t need to be especially strong—if you can probably hold the top of a push-up for a few seconds, that’s usually enough to start.


🌟 Why you’ll love it

✅ A full-body workout that builds strength, flexibility, and coordination
✅ Exercise that feels like play, not work
✅ A social, collaborative way to meet new people
✅ Builds trust, balance, and communication
✅ Each class brings fresh challenges and laughter


🏙️ Location & arrival details

📍 Ripley-Grier Studios, 520 8th Ave (between 36th & 37th St.)

Please arrive 15 minutes early for the security check (photo ID required) and to locate the studio room.

You’ll receive the studio number by email on the day of class.
If you sign up last minute, check the lobby screens or ask the front desk.
(Occasionally, the class may be in the building across the street—check your email!)


👕 What to bring & wear
  • Yoga mat
  • Snug-fitting clothing with no loops, ties, or zippers (e.g. yoga pants and a fitted top)
  • Avoid slippery shorts—they make balancing harder
  • Water bottle

🌟April: Summer Jam Readiness Month

Every day, the temperature goes up. Signs of spring start piling up. You can almost feel the parks calling you for summer jam. Now is the time to build up skills and learn poses/machines to be ready to take them out into the parks once its warm enough. To support you, we are doing a free month of acroyoga classes in April! Get ready now!
