PURE Air 2.0 – Confidence and Mindfulness with TT Ho
Aerial yoga provides a tool for developing strength and flexibility. With the aerial hammock, students build confidence and enhance mindfulness in their yoga practice.
Having undertaken PURE Air teacher training, this advanced practice aims at taking students to the next level, deepening the poses, and improving their practice physically and mentally on the aerial hammock. Students can challenge themselves whilst building confidence and trusting the aerial hammock as a prop for advanced poses.
You will refresh your knowledge of how to facilitate proper body alignment and physical release in different body parts. You will also enhance the techniques of creating a fluid aerial yoga class and how to safely teach aerial yoga to others, rather than just focusing on physical or mental challenges.
Completion of this course guarantees a certificate. You should feel confident in working with the hammock at intermediate to advanced levels in teaching and self-practice. It is recommended that graduates also enrol in a three-month mentorship programme to better equip themselves to teach comfortably and confidently.

A Chartered Accountant by training, TT was introduced to Yoga when Pure Yoga first opened in 2002, initially focusing on hot yoga. Over the years, he has practised and trained in various styles – from hatha, power vinyasa and ashtanga to yin yang, AcroYoga and aerial yoga – under different masters. TT’s practice has evolved from a physical practice to a holistic approach.
Inspired by his teachers Patrick Creelman and Wendy Wyvill amongst many others, TT undertook his first teacher training in the US with Baron Baptiste in 2009. The training was transformational and stressed authenticity. He then furthered his studies with Master Yogananth Andiappan, deepening his knowledge and practice in the yoga tradition. After acquiring 500 hours’ training with Master Yogananth, he was motivated to pursue a Master of Science degree in yoga & naturopathy. TT continues his lifelong journey in yoga, recently building his expertise in aerial yoga.
Through teaching yoga, TT hopes to spread its benefits and philosophy to a wider community. As Managing Editor of Asana, he is instrumental in introducing yoga masters to all and connecting with the international yoga community on yoga and related subjects. TT emphasises non-competition and compassion. His classes can be challenging at times, but students will leave feeling refreshed and energised.
