Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast!
In this episode, I explore the world of soft acrobatics with Aaron, an acrobatics coach and sports science student from Frankfurt, Germany.
Diving into the intricacies of movement, Aaron shares his journey of myth-busting traditional beliefs about motor learning, and how soft acrobatics serves as a bridge between the realms of physical capability and artistic expression.
We discuss how this practice is not just about acrobatic proficiency but also about fostering a deep connection with oneself, nature, and the community.
Join us to learn about the unique offerings of soft acrobatics, its foundation in sports science, and how it contrasts with conventional fitness approaches, providing a pathway to development and transformation.
