Learn Directly From the Source

Join Carmen Curtis in Hawaiʻi for an immersive exploration of AIReal Yoga® developed the first aerial yoga teacher training recognized by Yoga Alliance

This experience goes beyond memorizing poses or learning aerial tricks. You will study the methodology behind using the hammock as a yoga prop and discover how it can provide support, feedback, resistance, assistance, and greater awareness within your yoga practice.

The goal is not to make every body perform a posture in exactly the same way. The goal is to understand the intention of the posture, recognize the needs of the individual, and make informed choices that create a safer, more efficient, and more supportive experience.

You will be encouraged to explore, ask questions, and discover what is possible for you in an environment where you can feel safe, supported, and truly seen.

More Than Yoga Poses in a Hammock

The hammock is a powerful yoga prop, but the heart of AIReal Yoga is the way we understand and support the person using it.

Even familiar yoga postures may be approached differently within the AIReal Yoga methodology. Carmen prioritizes functional, individualized alignment rather than asking every student to conform to one external shape.

Throughout the training, you will explore how to:

• Use the hammock to support, assist, challenge, and provide feedback within yoga postures
• Understand the intention and function behind each posture
• Recognize individual movement patterns and alignment needs
• Integrate functional movement and corrective exercises
• Offer thoughtful progressions, variations, and modifications
• Adapt the practice for different bodies, abilities, and levels of experience
• Work more intelligently with hypermobility
• Support students across the adult lifespan
• Develop balance, strength, mobility, stability, stamina, coordination, and body awareness
• Incorporate nervous-system regulation into personal practice and teaching
• Help reduce injury risk through alignment, awareness, and efficient movement
• Support a thoughtful return to practice following an injury and appropriate medical clearance
• Teach with greater clarity, confidence, adaptability, and purpose

Carmen will provide individual observation and guidance whenever possible so participants can better understand their own bodies, movement habits, strengths, and needs.

A Supportive Hybrid Experience, Beyond the Digital Curriculum

This hybrid training combines five days of immersive, hands-on instruction with immediate, unlimited lifetime access to the complete AIReal Yoga digital training and downloadable manual.

As soon as you register, you may begin watching the educational videos, reading and printing the manual, and familiarizing yourself with the material. Those who register early can use these resources to prepare before arriving.

However, you are not expected to complete the entire digital training beforehand. If you register closer to the training dates, that is completely okay. You will receive the same in-person education and individual attention, and you can continue exploring the curriculum afterward at your own pace.

The digital course and manual provide a comprehensive foundation, but your time with Carmen will go far beyond the recorded curriculum. AIReal Yoga continues to evolve as Carmen works with different bodies, studies movement, and applies nearly 30 years of experience to new discoveries.

During the in-person training, Carmen will share the latest developments in the methodology, including:

• Refined alignment principles
• New variations and modifications
• Functional movement applications
• Corrective exercises
• Nervous-system regulation
• Hypermobility considerations
• Healthy-aging applications
• Current approaches to safety and injury prevention

You will also receive what cannot be fully captured in a manual or video: Carmen’s real-time observation, individual assessment, hands-on guidance, answers to your specific questions, and ability to adapt the practice to the person in front of her.

Rather than simply repeating the digital course, the in-person training brings the material to life. You will understand the reasoning behind the practice and develop greater confidence in making informed choices for your own body and the students you may teach.

Because your digital access never expires, you can return to the training whenever you need to review a posture, revisit alignment or safety information, explore a modification, plan a class, deepen your practice, or find renewed inspiration.

You do not need to remember everything at once. The digital training and manual become lifelong resources that continue growing with you.

Who Is This Training For?

Yoga Teachers

Expand your teaching toolkit with a supportive, adaptable modality that can help students experience familiar yoga postures in new ways.

Learn how the hammock can provide feedback, assistance, resistance, and accessibility, allowing you to serve a wider range of students while maintaining a strong foundation in yoga, alignment, safety, and intentional movement.

Registered yoga teachers are eligible to receive 50 Yoga Alliance continuing-education hours upon successful completion of the training requirements

Current AIReal Yoga and Aerial Yoga Teachers

Whether you trained with AIReal Yoga or through another aerial yoga program, this training offers an opportunity to revisit your foundation with a new lens, refine your teaching, and experience the latest evolution of the AIReal Yoga methodology.

Current AIReal Yoga teachers can refresh their knowledge and explore the newest updates, alignment principles, variations, and modifications. Teachers from other aerial yoga backgrounds can deepen their understanding of individualized alignment, functional movement, safety, accessibility, nervous-system regulation, hypermobility, and supporting students across a wide range of ages, bodies, abilities, and experience levels.

All experienced teachers will have opportunities to ask questions, receive individual feedback, and discover new layers of understanding as their own bodies, students, and teaching continue to evolve.

Aerialists and Aerial Arts Teachers

Complement your aerial training with intelligent yoga methodology and learn to move with greater alignment, efficiency, awareness, and control.

Explore how the hammock can support strength, mobility, stability, recovery, and longevity. A deeper understanding of functional movement, alignment, progression, and individual modification can help aerialists build a more sustainable practice and reduce their risk of injury.

Aerial teachers will also gain tools for recognizing individual movement needs and supporting a wider range of students.

Dedicated Students and Healthy-Aging Practitioners

You do not need to be a certified yoga teacher to participate, and age alone does not determine what is possible for you.

Students with an established yoga or AIReal Yoga practice are welcome to attend for their own education, personal growth, and deeper understanding of the hammock. AIReal Yoga is not limited to young, highly flexible, or advanced aerial practitioners.

AIReal Yoga welcomes adults across the lifespan—from those in their 20s to practitioners in their 90s. Carmen has even welcomed an 83-year-old into teacher training, demonstrating that meaningful learning, growth, and discovery can continue throughout life.

The hammock can offer valuable support throughout the aging process by helping practitioners safely explore balance, strength, mobility, stability, stamina, coordination, body awareness, and nervous-system regulation. It can also provide greater confidence and more options for adapting yoga postures to the body you have today.

You may take the training simply to:

• Better understand your body
• Support healthy aging and long-term movement
• Improve balance, strength, mobility, stability, and stamina
• Develop greater body awareness and confidence
• Explore safe and appropriate modifications
• Learn how the hammock can support your individual needs
• Build a strong foundation for continued practice

An established yoga or AIReal Yoga practice is recommended so you can receive the greatest benefit from the experience. Participants should be able to participate safely and receive appropriate medical clearance when returning after an injury or managing a health condition.

More Than a Training, A Community

AIReal Yoga trainings create meaningful connections. Participants learn together, support one another, share discoveries, and often leave wishing the experience did not have to end.

Fortunately, the connection does not end after our five days together.

You will become part of a growing international community of AIReal Yoga teachers and practitioners. Through your lifetime training access, complimentary year of membership, and Carmen’s continued availability, you will have resources and support as your practice and teaching evolve.

Carmen makes herself available for questions and continued guidance after the training because your safety and long-term development genuinely matter to her. Whether you need clarification, want to revisit a modification, or encounter a new question in your personal practice or teaching, you will not be left to navigate it alone.

Come ready to learn, move, explore, and connect. Leave feeling renewed, with a stronger foundation, greater confidence, trusted resources, new relationships, and a community that continues to support your journey.
