Workshop mit Heidi Blais und Jill Campbell
Wir sind glücklich, eine Premiere im Center Of Gravity anbieten zu können: Ihr habt die Chance, von den großartigen Heidi Blais und Jill Campbell unterrichtet zu werden, beide Mitglieder von AcroYoga Montréal. Da der Weg aus Kanada nach Hamburg etwas weit ist, unterrichten die beiden euch live über einen zugeschalteten Bildschirm mit (Fast-)Rundum-Kameraansicht. Die beiden sind in Montréal, ihr im Center Of Gravity in eurer Gruppe.
Heidi und Jill fliegen seit über 15 Jahren miteinander und unterrichten gemeinsam im Teacher-Training-Team von AcroYoga Montréal. Ihre Handschrift: Flows, in denen die Rollen wechseln – Base wird Flyer, Flyer wird Base – dazu Sequenzen ohne Handkontakt, Counterbalances, kreative Basing-Positionen und Partner-Handstände. Ihre Herangehensweise geht über das bloße Sammeln von Tricks hinaus. Heidi und Jill nehmen sich Zeit für eine gründliche Vorbereitung des ganzen Körpers und verbinden Bewegung mit dem Atem, um das Nervensystem zu beruhigen und Stabilität, Verbindung und Fluidität in der Partnerarbeit zu entwickeln. Gemeinsam erkunden sie gern den feinen Grat zwischen dem, was sichtbar ist, und dem, was spürbar ist.
Level: Beginner / Open Level
Sprache: Hauptsächlich Englisch. Heidi spricht auch Deutsch – wenn ein Wort fehlt, ist das kein Problem. Ralph ist auch vor Ort und übersetzt gern.

Workshop with Heidi Blais and Jill Campbell – AcroYoga Montréal
Tuesday, October 6th 2026, 6 p.m.–8 p.m. (2-hour workshop!)
We’re delighted to offer a premiere at the Center Of Gravity: a chance to be taught by the wonderful Heidi Blais and Jill Campbell, both members of AcroYoga Montréal. Since the trip from Canada to Hamburg is a little far, the two of them will teach you live via a connected screen with (almost) all-round camera view. They’ll be in Montréal, you’ll be here at the Center Of Gravity with your group.
Heidi and Jill have been flying together for over 15 years and teach side by side as part of the AcroYoga Montréal teacher-training team. Their signature style includes role-switching flows—where base becomes flyer and flyer becomes base—along with hands-free sequences, counterbalances, creative basing positions and partner handstands. Their approach goes beyond simply collecting tricks. Heidi and Jill devote time to full-body preparation, linking movement with breath to calm the nervous system and cultivate stability, connection and fluidity in their partner work. Together, they enjoy exploring the subtle edge between what is seen and what is sensed.
Level: Beginner / Open Level
Language: Mainly English. Heidi also speaks German – if a word is missing, that’s no problem. Ralph will be there in person and is happy to translate.
