slowly opened up again, we returned to jams — just as I was packing my bags to move to Mexico.
In Mexico, I quickly noticed that the Acroyoga community was more scattered and less regular than what I was used to. I participated in MexAcro, where I realized that my skills were not quite ready yet — but I gained something just as valuable: international connections and inspiration. While searching for Acroyoga classes (and discovering that one wasn’t happening anymore), I met Jorge for the first time. It would take two more years until our paths crossed again.
In April 2023, we finally met to train together — and from the very first session, it was clear that this would continue. Shortly after, we became partners not only in Acroyoga, but in life. Together, we focus deeply on L-Basing and have trained with various international teachers who came to Playa del Carmen.

My name is Marie, I’m 37 years old, and I’ve been living in Mexico since September 2021.
I discovered Acroyoga in 2019 in Cologne, Germany, at a time when I was looking for something new. I had been working in pole fitness, but the studio had become overcrowded, the joy was fading, and that summer it was simply too hot to train acrobatics in small, packed rooms.

In spring 2021, I started again from scratch with a friend. We became fixed training partners for a few weeks, meeting whenever curfew times allowed. When things
In December 2025, we completed our Level 1 Acroyoga Teacher Training (100 hours) with AcroYoga Montreal and can now proudly call ourselves certified Acroyoga teachers.
For me, Acroyoga is a dance between feminine and masculine energies, an ongoing exchange of giving and receiving. It is a beautiful reflection of all the facets of a relationship — between two people and within oneself.
