For those of you who don't already know, one thing I've always been very much into is games.
Every type of game: from card games to video games to word games to board games to sports games.
From a young age I always enjoyed these different types of games.
I've always found that if I run on a treadmill or go for a run I get bored after about 30 minutes.
Whereas if I am playing football I can run and run and run chasing around a ball on a field for hours and hours until my legs pretty much fall off.
Even in social situations, I obviously enjoy sitting, talking and connecting with people.
But it's even more interesting and engaging when playing a game like 'never have I ever' or something silly like that.
I think this must be something in our human nature that we feed off of games and having some goal or objective in mind.
I'm sure you can see where I'm headed with this...
Acroyoga is playful and like a game to me.
Where the objective is to create something cool with someone else.
Working out or going to the gym is the boring non playful option and acroyoga is the fun and engaging option I can do until I completely run out of energy.
So to come back to the point in the subject line of this email:
Can learning be fun?
I think definitely yes!
Because I see it in acroyoga, it's so much fun that you don't want to stop once you start.
All the while you get fit and you learn about body awareness, trust, communication and more!
This brings me to the point that I think acroyoga is going to be a future educational tool for sports and communication.
Can you imagine if acroyoga was taught to kids as part of physical education in schools all around the world?
Imagine what an incredible positive impact that would have on everyone's communication, body awareness and trust skills.
What's also funny now I think about it is that we even have games within acroyoga for even more fun, haha!
I'll share a bit more about these games and why they are one of the best things to do with new acro partners in a future email soon, so keep an eye out for it.For those of you who don't already know, one thing I've always been very much into is games.
