AntiGravity Yoga isn't your traditional yoga workout. It involves a hammock, which made me really excited, but no snoozing is allowed. Boo. Still, it sounds like an amazing way to practice yoga in a totally new way.

So, you're asking, what exactly is AntiGravity Yoga? Does it involve levitating? (At least, that's what I wondered.) No, there's no actual levitating, but you are held off the ground in an AntiGravity hammock, which, according to the website, allows you to:

• Decompress tight joints, relieving pressure while aligning the vertebrae of the spine without strain,
• Perform advanced yoga inversions without neck or back compression,
• Hold challenging yoga postures longer and in correct alignment,
• Stretch further with less strain,
• Add an entirely new dimension to your practice,
• Create better body awareness while increasing overall agility.

And, it's supposed to be a ton of fun. I'm sold!

Originally it was created by gymnasts, but has been changed to work for yoga and regular people. They've added techniques from dance, Pilates, and calisthenics -- you can see it in action here or in the video above.

Does it sound or look familiar? AntiGravity itself has been around since 1990, and the troupe performs all over the country for all kinds of events -- you've almost certainly seen them at some point.
