Course Overview
According to our students, Unnata Aerial Yoga classes feel different from aerial yoga classes they’ve experienced before; they “feel like real yoga.” This is due to how the Unnata method guides students to a more focused and restful state of mind along with playfully building strength and flexibility. You don’t have to choose between developing physical health or mental health, Unnata Aerial Yoga gives you both!
In this 3-hour online course, a partial abbreviation of our teacher training and a follow up to the Secrets of Unnata Aerial Yoga course, you’ll learn more of the Unnata method, and how to apply Unnata principles to your own aerial yoga practice and teaching. The livestream will be interactive with time for exploration, experimentation and practice.
What You Will Get Out of This Course (Benefits & Goals)
Even if you have very little training in, or experience with Hatha yoga, learning the foundations of the Unnata method will deepen your understanding of classic yoga, and transform your aerial yoga classes for you and your students. In the first Secrets of Unnata Aerial Yoga course, we learned how the yoga postures (asanas) function within a yoga class. More Secrets of Unnata Aerial Yoga will teach you how to string together aerial yoga postures into a coherent practice with the same delicious benefits as traditional yoga classes.
What Is Hatha Yoga, Anyway?
Most people attend yoga classes to improve their physical fitness without realizing the original purpose for the yoga postures. The intense focus on deep breathing while practicing yoga postures was originally meant to balance our autonomic nervous system, which helps our minds be uncolored by thoughts arising out of stress, anxiety, fear, anger, sadness, or any array of emotions that push us into (and sometimes get us stuck in) the fight-flight-freeze instinct. Balancing our autonomic nervous system improves our overall well-being (both mind and body), which brings us closer to inner peace.
No matter what the goal of your yoga practice (physical or otherwise), we can use the yoga hammock to support and enhance your experience.
“The profound knowledge and content of the Unnata technique really blew my mind.”

Unnata® Aerial Yoga is the original aerial yoga method created by a yogi, for students (and teachers) who love yoga. The Unnata method weaves use of the hammock into a traditional Hatha Yoga class to enhance and refine a traditional floor yoga practice. Also called “hammock-assisted yoga,” students unwind old physical patterns, reset their body’s true alignment, and learn deeper body awareness in multi-dimensional space. Unnata Yoga classes ground as much as elevate, and balance both earth and air.
Unnata is real Yoga, elevated.
Michelle Dortignac, founder of Unnata® Aerial Yoga, is credited with developing the aerial yoga approach to hatha yoga. She is a YA E-RYT 500, AYC Level 3 certified Yoga instructor of almost three decades, while during a large portion of those years also being a professional aerial acrobatics performer. Her most influential Yoga teachers include Dharma Mittra, Alan Finger, Cyndi Lee, Susan Braham and Nishit Patel.
Since its inception in 2006, Unnata Aerial Yoga led the growth of popularity and the continued development of aerial yoga. Today, Unnata Yoga online courses and workshops focus on helping aerial yoga students and teachers learn how to use the yoga hammock as a tool to reinforce traditional yoga techniques proven to improve one’s physical and mental health.
