This year, I got to attend the first Fem Power Acro festival held in Portland. This was no ordinary festival as this was a females only acro festival, the first of its kind.

There is a misconception that partner acrobatics usually involves a big base and a small flyer. Well, at Fem Power Acro, these stereotypes were pushed aside, as I met so many bad-ass lady bases. It was cool to be a part of an all female group of acrobatics that could lift each other up. We talked about gender identification, relationships and pretty much any topic we could think of.

Here are a couple of cool photos taken from our trip.

This experience was amazing because I got to spend it with some of my favorite Sacramento ladies. We road tripped from Sacramento to Portland, and just had a blast.

From this festival, I learned how to not only be a flyer, but a base! Size doesn't matter, when you got a big heart! Here is a video of me as a base!

Wow. Amazing karen ! First time hearing about such event/activity. Well done and thanks for sharing

:) aww you're welcome!

This is really cool. I've done acro yoga a couple of times and it's so fun. I really like being the base (although it's hard cos I'm little).

hahah I'm little too, but it makes you so strong! I love basing and flying. Both roles are so fun!

If I put a dress on, could I join the festival? Haha.

AcroFlow Rocks!
