Yoga of Acro: Where the philosophy of yoga and magic movement exploration combine into a spiritual community

We envision a future where physical fitness and spiritual practices come together in a tangible, meaningful way. Our goal is to build a worldwide community united by the power of movement, connection and spirituality. We’re focused on enhancing an individual practice with a partner practice; we’re about creating real connections, supporting one another in an inclusive space, and use this to foster personal growth and deepen our insights. Through the playfulness of Acroyoga, the spirituality of yoga philosophy and unlimited tools, we want to make daily practices accessible to all, so everyone can receive the physical and mental health benefits and the joy of shared experiences.

‘‘It is not about how high you can reach, but who will be there with you.’’

The magic of Yoga of Acro lies in its ability to transform fear into courage, doubt into trust, and individuals into community.

Our Story

  • We (Stefano and Jolien) discovered AcroYoga when it was still relatively new. Back then, gathering with friends in the park to try out new moves and meet new people felt magical. The lessons we learned from AcroYoga - like how to communicate better, trust each other, and embrace changes - made us fall in love with the practice. Our mission is to keep this magic alive for everyone.

    As AcroYoga is growing, so does its presence on social media, drawing inspiration from circus acts and acrobatics. This shift leads beginners to aim for complex poses too quickly, risking injuries and missing out on the journey. We (and many others) notice this trend and are afraid it could harm AcroYoga’s true spirit.

    We created Yoga of Acro to preserve the heart of AcroYoga. Our goal is to build a place where the basics - trust, communication, and support - are what matter most. We believe in growing at your own pace and finding joy in every step of the process.

    Next to that, we have cultivated a personal practice in the last 10 years that helps us evolve and grow into compassionate, empathetic and patient humans. We believe that sharing our journey might inspire others and hope to offer help along the way.

  • Our mission is to empower individuals and communities through the transformative practice of yoga, AcroYoga, meditation and much more. Yoga of Acro is dedicated to providing high-quality, accessible instruction and resources for practitioners of all levels, from beginners to advanced. We commit to provide a safe, welcoming space where everyone can explore the limits of their potential, develop trust in themselves and others, and experience the joy of movement and connection. Through our online platform and live events, we strive to spread the effects of spiritual and movement practices, making it an integral part of people's journey towards holistic wellness.

  • We're not just looking back at the magic of our beginnings; we're also focused on the future. Our vision is to make AcroYoga more than just impressive poses; it's about creating deeper connections, fostering trust, and building a supportive community. As we move forward, Yoga of Acro aims to provide a space for those seeking not just physical movement and strength but also emotional and spiritual growth.

    We believe in a future where people support each other the way you get supported doing Acroyoga. It's about growing together, learning from each other, and celebrating every step of the journey. With Yoga of Acro, we're committed to using the essence of AcroYoga, enriching it with yoga philosophy and to ensure it brings magic to many lives.

    Join us as we build this online community where you can find like-minded people, get support in the hard moments and be celebrated for your wins. In a playful way, we walk into a future filled with more laughter, more connections, and more magical moments.
