Innovative, One-of-a-Kind, Yoga for Medical Conditions and Overall Health and Wellness
Utilizing Strategically Placed, Multiple Levels of Ballet Barres
​The Stegman Method℠for Health & Wellness
Raising the Bars Yoga ~ The Stegman Methodâ„ is an innovative, one-of-a-kind, yoga for medical conditions and overall health and wellness utilizing strategically placed, multiple levels of ballet barres. This revolutionary method is effective for individuals suffering from and/or preventing injury or illness. It blends restorative yoga (supported postures), gentle yoga, breathwork, hands-on energy work, and guided meditation techniques. Utilizing multiple levels of bars maximizes leverage, gravity, and bodyweight for resistance.

Choose from three convenient Atlanta area locations in Sandy Springs and Marietta.

Top Health Benefit Unique to Aerial Yoga
Supported inversions, being upside down while held and supported by a hammock relaxes muscles, lengthens, aligns and decompresses the spine, much like traction. Great for back and neck pain as well as postural issues!
Essentially you are floating above the ground creating full body engagement, particularly core work, as the body works against gravity to stabilize and transition between poses, improving flexibility, strength and stamina.
