AERIAL SUPPORT Getting fit is all about getting high. Supermodel­s like Natasha Poly and Angela Lindvall are suspending their lithe bodies in the air with elastic bands. (It’s known as “aerial yoga.”) Celeb trainer Tracy Anderson has taken the trend to new heights by offering private lessons in Stacking, in which her signature pulsing and torquing moves are done in a prone position—albeit six feet in the air, supported by an instructor. Talk about higher learning.

Lift your hips until they align with your shoulders and knees—your body should form a 45-degree angle.
