A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

A serene start to the new year.

Jasn rang in 2010 by enjoying a peaceful outdoor lotus suspension n New Years Day.

    The furrowed brow doesn’t quite say ‘Peaceful’ to me.
    Rightfully so. It’s a lot of pain to endure. And we can see that.
    Good documentation.
    Nice outdoor setting.
    Sure beats white walls, florescent lighting, ceilings, the smell of Technicare, and the overall dentist office sterility akin to most studios.
    Cheers!

    What Aloewishes said – except that I’d definitely say “peaceful”. The pain goes away….
    And it’s easy to have such nice outdoor settings when you live in Hawaii!

    All of these phenomenal outdoor locations make me want to utilize the area I come from for more suspensions. It also makes me feel bad that I haven’t already. Well done Jasn, incredibly inspiring and beautiful.
