What is Aqua Yoga?

Water yoga, or aqua yoga, is exactly what it sounds like. It’s a style of yoga that takes place in a body of water—like a swimming pool, spa, pond or lake. Water yoga offers a variation on the traditional yoga routine, simply by performing asanas, or postures, in the water. Many of the poses are the same as those you would practice in a typical yoga setting, with modifications for safety and breathability.


Water yoga classes are a great option if you’re looking for a low-impact style of practice, or seeking to improve your sense of balance. The water creates an environment that requires your body to adjust to movement, while the natural buoyancy offloads stress and pain. Anyone can take water yoga classes, and the practice is particularly helpful for seniors, pregnant mothers, or people suffering from chronic pain.
