🤸 If You Fail, Try Again! Landing Acro Pops! (New Dtube Video inside) 🤸
(Click on image to see video)
My favorite acroyoga move to fly are called “pops.” I love the feeling of being thrown in the air. To be honest, I’m always a little nervous, but the thrill of it, is all part of the fun.
This week, I was at a Dallas acro jam, and it was fate that I would meet Victor (aka acromachine on Instagram). Victor is from Santa Monica, so it was pretty neat that we met at an acro jam in Texas! Acro has a funny way of bringing people from all over the world together. Victor’s specialty is in advanced pop moves.
I was so stoked that Victor taught me how to fly the “cascade away.” This 360 pop, can be very dangerous if not done correctly, so I don’t recommend trying this if you are new to acroyoga.
Of course, we didn’t nail the move on the first try. Usually I share acroyoga, flows with ya’ll, but today I wanted to show you progressions on how we work up to a move. We broke the pop into two different moves (Bird pops, and throne throws), and finally we combined it together.
It took a total of three attempts to nail this move.
Here is a sneak peak of the final result.
I hope you enjoy watching the progressions I went through to learn this crazy move.

My body's to ugly for this :(
but its Amazing! I feel like this is so powerful for building stronger relationships, all the trust and communication needed to do this. Very cool!
Acroyoga is so much fun! You should try it if you get a chance :)
wow you are amazing..i think you are a multi talented one
Very awesome Landing Karen!
Its a hard move to learn in just 3 attempts:)
And for beginners I would say"DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME" hahaha
I want to experience acroyoga, it's something I haven't done yet. Woefully, I missed the Dallas acro jam in November. Where would you guide someone who's totally 100% new to start? Is there a recommended minimum fitness level?
You and @polebird make it look like so much fun! ☺
Dallas has weekly Acro jams and beginner acroyoga classes, you can find the Dallas Acro on Facebook page!
Awesome, I'll check it out. Thank you so much!
