Aerial yoga has become an exciting new fitness class as of late, so it might be surprising to learn that Christopher Harrison first started developing aerial yoga as early as 1999. Harrison and Team AntiGravity — made up of gymnasts and dancers — were traveling in the tropics when they were inspired by a gazebo of hammocks. He and his team began messing around and playing with the hammocks, exploring the movements. Later on stage, the team was inspired when they saw fabric being used as a climbing rope. After experimenting with different types of fabric in their gym, Harrison found the perfect material and aerial yoga began. He began inventing moves that incorporated yoga, Pilates and calisthenics.
