Aerial Yoga
Teacher Training

Enrollment Coming Soon!

Upon completion of this program LIVE via Zoom,you will be able to 
safely & successfully lead a group of yogi's through an 
​aerial yoga class, certified by Yoga Hive Studios.

​Why Aerial Yoga?

In Aerial yoga, the hammock is kept close to the ground and becomes a swing which can support the hips in both ​forward & back bends. For many people, yoga postures that are difficult on the ground can be performed more easily and with less strain on the body in mid-air. It is suggested that in addition to the emotional, physical and spiritual benefits of all yoga practice, Aerial yoga has particular benefits
for strengthening and stretching the whole body, decompressing the spine, improving circulation, boosting digestion and lifting one's mood. In particular, aerial yoga strengthens the core as well as the arms and legs, to support the body in mid-air. ​

Is this program is for me?

A 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher Training or a strong yoga practice is required for all participants. Learn 50+ aerial yoga postures, deepen your physical practice, and leave the program with the confidence to lead others through a Gentle Aerial Yoga Sequence, a Honey Aerial Yoga Flow (medium paced) and a Hive Aerial Yoga Sequence (fast paced). ​

"You ask, 'What if I fall?'

Oh darling, but what if you fly?"

Benefits of Aerial Yoga:

• Releases tension
• Deepens stretches 
• ​Aids in digestive functions
• Improves breath awareness and control
• Induces smiles and intermittent laughter
• Enhances core strength, flexibility and balance
• Increases balance and proprioception (bodily awareness)
• Relieves joint pressure and spinal compression different from those reached in mat practices

What will I learn?

We will start off with the basics of anatomy, both energetic and physical. You will enjoy different styles of class each day of the training as we break down over 50 aerial yoga poses, and cover safe cueing for each one.
​In addition, you'll learn:

• Physical Anatomy, as it applies to teaching aerial yoga
• Energetic Anatomy, as it applies to teaching aerial yoga
• Cueing and sequencing, the Arc of Class
• Contraindications and modifications, including prop usage
• History of Aerial Yoga
• History and ethics of yoga (and aerial yoga!) and the 8-limbed path
• The business of aerial yoga​

What do I need?

You must have your own aerial rig ( ideally single point ) rigged in your home or a freestanding rig. You can purchase a portable rig system online for $600 and up. A silk hammock is also required - please visit our Shop for availability if you need to purchase a silk. Yoga Hive has beautifully vibrant blue and regal purple silks available for purchase.
​
If you would like to teach a 60-minute test class with Mollie for your Yoga Hive certification, you'll also need a computer with video capabilities that can easily record or livestream your class for Mollie's personal feedback. These details are TBD, and will be completed between the student and Mollie, directly.


​Please Note:
Yoga Hive Studios is not able to provide specific information on how to properly install your hammock.
We suggest consulting a structural engineer or licensed contractor to ensure the safety of your aerial yoga setup. ​

Meet Mollie Busby

E-RYT 500 Sattva Yoga Master Teacher  //  Yoga Hive Founder  //  Owner of YH Wisconsin & YH Montana

Mollie Busby is a driven entrepreneur with the spirit of a summer camp counselor and a kind, midwestern smile. Mollie is a seasoned yoga and meditation teacher and off-grid home builder with her husband, Sean. Although the pair now calls Alaska their home, they have deep roots in the Flathead Valley, and Mollie commutes back to Montana and Wisconsin to manage her two yoga studios.

Wherever they are, the Busbys choose to live close to the land off-the-grid and pursue their life’s work. The pair started Riding On Insulin, which Mollie ran as Executive Director for 7 years, until Sean took over in 2017. It was then that Mollie shifted much of her focus to Yoga Hive, and now, to Yoga Hive Studios, taking the brand beyond Montana. Yoga Hive is known for its inviting vibe, friendly instructors, and willingness to show anyone that yoga is for everybody and every body. ​

Regardless of the method, Mollie sees her purpose on this planet as cultivating community in small groups of women — whether in a yoga retreat setting in the mountains or Alaska or Montana, or during the Yoga Teacher Trainings she runs in
Montana, Colorado, Wisconsin and beyond. She enjoys spending time outdoors skiing in the winter, hiking in the summer, and playing with their pack of sled dogs all year round: Glacier, Milo, Powder, Coldfoot, Insley and Tundra.

She and Sean have built a dynamic off-the-grid homestead in the heart of Whitefish, Montana, that’s been featured on HGTV, the DIY Network,  Discovery Channel, Yahoo News, Daily Mail, and more. They've also built off-grid homesteads in Homer, Alaska and most recently, their wilderness lodge and retreat center, 63 miles above the arctic circle, nestled in the Alaskan bush of the Brooks Range, Arctic Hive. 

Hailing originally from Wisconsin, Mollie brings to Montana her warm, midwestern hospitality mixed with a wide range of yoga training. Her teaching draws inspiration from the Baptiste Yoga community, Energy Medicine Yoga and a mix of Tantric Kriya and mantra-based meditation from Sattva Yoga Academy at the foothills of the Himalayas in India.

​This unique mix gives her classes a magical feel, with a love for teaching the basics to anyone willing to learn, layered with a profound gift of teaching for transformation.
