“You’re Stealing my Moves!”
Dealing with attachment issues in Acro Yoga Fusion
Acrobatics tumbling, hand to hand, partner balancing and Yoga have been around since way back in the day. Who’s to say when Acro Yoga Fusion started, and who started it?
Some dude hoisted some other dude up in the air breathing deeply from the lower back, with bandhas activated, and a dynamic practice was born. And that’s the beauty of the thing; the natural progression of Acro Yoga Fusion into a traditional art form is upon us. And yet, that said, when it comes to “my moves” I can get pretty uptight. I’m resentful when I see someone working on something I’m doing, even when they credit me for their inspiration, I still feel put out. What’s up with that?!
The manifestation of my competitive nature forces me to examine my motives as a performer teacher and human being. Perhaps it’s time to practice what I preach and get with some non-attachment therapy. Acro Yoga Fusion is a great time, a challenging dynamic, fun, soulful practice, full of potential. I’m gonna try to let my little ownership issues go and enjoy practicing with my friends, family and students.
Peace out
