Acroyoga: A Pathway to Healing Trauma
Blessings, I was a software architect turned acroyogi after an astonishing journey of self-discovery from suffering a life threatening injury.
I have always been committed to physical activity, health, and wellness. However, under the pressures of a soul crushing career in the world-famous Silicon Valley in California, I overcame a traumatic health challenge that changed my life forever. I took my life in my own hands and said “No more, enoigh is enough!”
For the next 4 years, I embarked on a self-healing journey to “fix my back” by embracing the Eastern philosophy to cure the root of the problem – a decision that changed my life forever.
I said goodbye to my cush and successful tech career in San Francisco and discovered the magical island of Bali that thoutoughly embraced my new found lifestyle.
In Bali, I dove deepinto integrating yogic philosophy to replace the robotic conditioning of the Western rat race that consumed my life ad another cog in the machine.
I discovered my true passions and tapped into my inner being. I found alignment with my real life worth living. I discovered the power of acroyoga which taught me life lessons sbout trust, communication, community, and playfulness.
I invented The AcroBack, a unique and innovative product designed specifically for acroyoga based. I originally created The AcroBack to alleviate my own lower back pain and discomfort commonly experienced during acroyoga so that i could play with my friends.
Through my journey of self-healing and exploration of physical therapy and yoga, I identified the need for a better solution of ergonomic support while basing. I certainly wa not alone.
The AcroBack provides essential support and protection, particularly for those with tight hamstrings or who experience back pain. The ergonomic design and dual foam core make it an ideal prop for various acroyoga poses, offering comfort and injury prevention. It’s especially beneficial for dynamic movements such as pops, whips, and Icarian skills, absorbing impact forces and reducing stress on joints and muscles.
The AcroBack has become popular in the acroyoga community, with many practitioners finding it an indispensable tool for enhancing their practice.
I’ve gone on to invent other acroyoga and yoga related products, ultimately curating a collection of the highest quality boutique products to serve monkeys just like me.
And I’m just getting started!
