Well done Itally 💙💚💛

Bravo Italy! 🇮🇹

Animal Equality’s campaign to ban the killing of male chicks by being ground alive or suffocated as they have no use in the will soon be history! By 2022 over 5M chicks 🐣 will be saved! 🐣🎉

The Parliament has made the responsibility choice to respect sentient animals who can no longer be considered industrial waste. The selective killing of male chicks that takes place every day in the egg industry can’t be considered standard, and today, the Parliament has chosen to support our proposal that follows the European Union’s rules on animal welfare. It’s time to encourage the introduction of in-ovo sexing technologies in Italy, as producers are already doing, and institutions must commit to this fundamental path for the progress of our country and the animals.
Alice Trombetta, Executive Director of Animal Equality Italy
“We started working on this goal last year and even before the law was passed, the first in-ovo sexing machine was implemented in Italy thanks to our work with Coop and Assoavi, who were the first to commit to introducing the technologies. This first machine alone could save 5 million chicks each year starting in 2022,” Trombetta continues.

In the egg industry, male chicks are considered useless as they are not able to lay eggs, nor can they be used for meat as they are different species from the more common broiler chickens used by the food industry. For this reason, every year in Italy, between 25 and 40 million male chicks are killed.

Shredded alive or suffocated, the chicks are killed immediately, within the first 24 hours of birth, and without the use of stunning techniques.

Tonights throwback was another cool collab from almost a year ago. flying again & this time behind the lens. This session ended up lasting 5 hours but was fun all the way. These are my favourites from a lot of cool shots..

This was such a classic collab with 4 - 5 years ago, I could easilly post another 10 shots from that day.

I've had a bit of an unplanned break from posting on here, mainly because I've been focused on a couple of projects. Inspired to get back to it now though and there's lots that I've not got round to posting but probably should, like some of these shots. This was a fun, experimental collab from 1 year ago with and .

Some more improv from a few weeks back. None of this was planned, we went with what showed up moment to moment with some inspiring music. We'd need to watch the video to figure out how we got into most of these poses..
Thank you for not leaving this to chance 🌠💫.

Travelling outside the box and slowing things down to a moving meditation where choices can and do become more intuitive. More on this soon. Its a direction I've been exploring gradually in recent years and feel it offers acroyogadance a world of exciting possibilities..
Thanks for getting it 🌠 🙏🏼 for exploring in pictures 💫.

OmYoga mag asked us to give them a few poses to choose from for the cover. It needed to be a narrow shape. They choose mermaid. Which pic would have gone with?.
Thanks for all that you've helped create and explore.

AcroYogaSUP at 💙.
Great to finally meet/work with 📷 too windy for the drone and probably the last bit of acroyogagasup this year in UK. I'm amazed that of all the SUP first timmers only 1 pair fell in which is actually unheard of. The 2 that fell in did it in real style, video to follow 💗.
Big thanks to & who run the only place in the world I know of with enough of the right kind of boards to have 10 people learning acroyogasup with a reasonable chance of it actually working..

Looking forward to next weeks AcroYogaDance teacher training. We were only able to confirm it last week. Space is obviously limited but at the moment we still have space for 1 more couple and 2 more flyers. Flyers If you think you can get test results back in time DM me and we can explore it. (There's a way to get tested quickly without cost) .
23rd Sept - 4th Oct.
25th Sept is day in a surprise but cool location...
Thanks for these pics

― Alan W. Watts.
Soon you'll be able to join us on a journey of exploring this practice even if live on the other side of the world. Exploring the potential of this practice as artform and means of creative expression..
AcroYogaDance online academy is your road map designed to develop your technical acoryoga ability, as well as creativity, connection and intuition in a partmer movement context. As you work your way the each level of the syllabus you will find your practice starts to flow more and more like a moving meditation. .
The word yoga means union (mind, body & spirit) in acroyogadance that union extends to explore the union of mind, body, spirit of 2 practice partners. To what extent is that possible. And what kind of magic becomes possible as understanding, clarity and familiarity grow in this partnership? Well, the answer is unique and differenet for everyone and therre's only way to find out what you'll discover on your journey. .
These are the reasons AcroYogaDance has always recommdended practicing with one consistent partner if poassible. Obviously that's not always as easy as it sounds and may take some time to find someone to take this journey with. As far as the online platform is concerned, people are getting good results in it's current beta phase. Same with the online module of AcroYogaDance teacher training. We'll be rolling out a big update soon that makes things even better and gets us closer to lauching both plaforms fully..
If you're in the fortunate position and have someone to partner with, time to practice and want to get started sooner. DM if you think you'll be a fit for the beta programme which also cost less than the normal programmes when they launch fully. So you'ill save money and start your journey sooner. Whats not to love 🙏🏼💙.
