WHERE: DEFINE DUBAI In a nutshell Silk hammocks take the weight off your joints and make handstands a breeze What you need to know Swing yoga is a stretching, strengthening and flexibilityboosting class, where you use silk hammocks. Class starts off with some mat-based warm up moves, before hopping into the hammock. Some of the poses involve using the it as a prop – for example, stretching out your hamstrings by having one heel in the silk and the other planted on the floor. As you build your confidence, you can even get into some backbends and inversions. Top tip Wear form-fitting yoga wear so you don’t get tangled up in the hammock.
