CONGRATULATIONS on your new acquisition of one of our Omni Gym Yoga Swing™ suspension products. We are positive
that you will get as much enjoyment, training and sensori-motor re-patterning out of it as we have. You will soon be enjoying
hours of fun, toning, stretching, strengthening, aerial yoga, suspension training and self-treatment of back and neck pain.
Explore and experiment and come up with your own new postures and routines. You will find that the stronger and more
flexible you become using your yoga swing, the more positions you will naturally find your body moving in. The number of
movements, exercises and stretches available are unlimited – the only limitations lie within the strength, flexibility and
creativity of the practitioner. Tone Cardenas, owner of Omni Gym and inventor of the Yoga Swing, has been using his swing
for 15+ years now and continues to think of new exercises and uses every single day.
The best way to achieve rapid results on the swing is to simply relax and explore the flow of movements intuitively with your
body, not your head. Tune in and turn on. Tune in to the body and its subtler sensations and feelings, its innate guidance
mechanisms. Turn on your natural sensori-motor skills, your kinesthetic memory and awareness, your endorphin pleasure
centers.
DESCRIPTION:
Omni Gym Yoga Swings are multi-purpose bodyweight training, therapeutic, inversion and yoga
apparatuses. The multiple handles and spring trapeze system are meant to make it easy to include many different types of
training into your routine. With this total-body trainer, experience strengthening, stretching, spinal traction, rehabilitation,
inversion therapy, neuro-muscular re-education and of course . . . FUN!
Your yoga swing may consist of a cushioned fabric sling and six independent handles adjustable at three different heights
(overhead, waist level and foot level). The built-in cushioning ensures comfortable spinal work and inversions. Your model
may also come with the 3-Spring Trapeze, our extension system that can be hung from the rafters in a house, a sturdy ceiling
mount, a tree branch, or the Omni Stand – our optional metal support frame. The gentle bounce created by the Spring Trapeze
provides a relaxing and pleasurable effect on the body and mind, while an optional swivel hook attachment will allow a playful
360 degree spin effect. Spread out the sling and it provides a unique and comfortable medium for seated meditation while
suspended off the ground. Hang the suspension hook points wide between two trees and you can create your own hammock
for relaxing and resting.
