As modern day nomads, you can find them driving coast to coast, or hopping on a plane to teach overseas. Sam is the co-founder of the YogaSlackers, and has a great deal of knowledge and experience on the slackline, creating amazing spectacles wherever he goes. Raquel's extensive training in different types of Yoga, AcroYoga and Slacklining, makes her a motivating and receptive teacher, great at progressing her students further. With their many combined talents and skills, these two always have something new and exciting to share and together, making them the perfect teaching team.

Acro teachers Aaron Lind and Rebecca Genter bring high level acrobatics and playfulness together to create an exciting and accessible training and performing environment. They train and live in New Orleans where they have built a flourishing and loving community of acrobats. Rebecca draws experience from her former gymnastics background, and as a yoga teacher, as well as a horseback riding instructor. Aaron Lind is a co-founder of Acro Revolution, as well as having received both levels of certification from AcroYoga. He thrives on traveling the world to share his passion for Acro and community building, welcoming any student wanting to learn and grow.
