My favorite acroyoga move to fly are called “pops.” I love the feeling of being thrown in the air. To be honest, I’m always a little nervous, but the thrill of it, is all part of the fun.
This week, I was at a Dallas acro jam, and it was fate that I would meet Victor (aka acromachine on Instagram). Victor is from Santa Monica, so it was pretty neat that we met at an acro jam in Texas! Acro has a funny way of bringing people from all over the world together. Victor’s specialty is in advanced pop moves.
I was so stoked that Victor taught me how to fly the “cascade away.” This 360 pop, can be very dangerous if not done correctly, so I don’t recommend trying this if you are new to acroyoga.
Of course, we didn’t nail the move on the first try. Usually I share acroyoga, flows with ya’ll, but today I wanted to show you progressions on how we work up to a move. We broke the pop into two different moves (Bird pops, and throne throws), and finally we combined it together.
It took a total of three attempts to nail this move.
Here is a sneak peak of the final result.
I hope you enjoy watching the progressions I went through to learn this crazy move.

I want to experience acroyoga, it's something I haven't done yet. Woefully, I missed the Dallas acro jam in November. Where would you guide someone who's totally 100% new to start? Is there a recommended minimum fitness level?
You and @polebird make it look like so much fun! ☺
