You will feel accomplished after this practice. This practice also provides plenty of moments to enjoy the stretch you crave, the satisfying breaths you need and some space in the mind to relax and free yourself from the daily 'to do's.

Have a beautiful day!!

These 5 poses are very accessible, straightforward forward and very useful for keeping your mobility, range of motion and flexibility in your back, hips, shoulders and hamstrings. It's a reminder that you don't have to do a lot all of the time and that a short sequence of postures can be very beneficial! You will learn and practice them individually as well as learn to put them together for a morning flow to get your day started right! These postures can help relieve back pain/discomfort, stretch out your calves and hamstrings and open hips and shoulders. Do it every day and notice how you feel!

Jump into your day fully committed! A quick and to the point workout to start your day!! You will get your body moving with a few Sun Salutations to warm and stretch your body. You will strengthen your upper, middle and lower body with some straight forward functional type movements like air/body squats, push-ups (your personal modification, knees down etc). You will find yourself in a few forearm side planks (and other core variations) to work and tone your core. You will finish with a stretch or two to compliment the work you've done and sit for a moment to contemplate the day ahead, then get up and get after it knowing you've started off exactly as you've chosen to, strong and dedicated to living your best day!

This Pre Game class is great for anyone getting ready to play a sport or engage in any activity where the body could use some good warming up dynamic movement, stretching, balance, breathing and focus. It will warm and open the joints, wake up and stretch all the necessary muscles and begin to prep the body for bigger more explosive movements, whatever they may be ... running, jumping, lateral movements etc. This practice could also be used as an 'everyday wake up and get your day started' practice ... the 'pre game' for your day!! We finish seated for a few moments focusing on our breath and a positive mindset.

Yoga for Golf will help to increase your range of motion in your hips and trunk of your body as well as build strength in your core, creating more rotation and follow through, thus giving you the distance you've either lost or have not found on the course. We all know how nice it is to be hitting a wedge into the green rather than a long iron :-)

Golf is very one-sided - you swing over and over on your right or left side. The sequence of postures in this class will help to balance you out. This class will provide opportunities to work on your shoulders, hips, core/trunk, hamstrings - all areas of the body that are crucial for a fluid and PAIN FREE golf swing! You will also work on your breath and mental game, knowing how important it is to take a big breath before a swing to reduce tension and to keep a positive and focused mid set, taking the time to visualize and see the shot you are about to hit.

Up your game and increase your competitive advantage through yoga! Have fun!

Yoga for Tennis will prepare your mind, body and breath for your game. Wether you practice this class before or after your game, it'll work well for both.

The sequence of movements will address all the areas of your body that are stressed or fatigued to help recover and build strength and resilience in these areas. You will focus on your breathing in the class which is crucial while playing and managing fatigue during a match or even casual play. And as in all sports, it's important to learn how to manage your mind and your thoughts so as to not get too angry or frustrated about any one point. Instead learn to take a moment to take a deep breath and figure out how or why you made the mistake or error.

If you play tennis and practice yoga, you know how important it is to have your 'mind, body and breath' in order so you can play well! And if you're just beginning either yoga or tennis, you will surely learn this soon enough!

Yoga for (American) Football is a combination of strength, flexibility, stamina building, spine mobility and awareness and overall body conditioning along with a focus on breathing and awareness/mindfulness. Your strength will be tested with some body weight planks and pushups (good to be able to hold your own body weight up, different than weight lifting), you will stretch and open all the tight and funky areas of the body that football takes a toll on, you will practice a few postures that help add strength and mobility to your spine (important because of you may be tackled, fall etc on field). Overall it's a solid well-balance practice that you will feel and also appreciate the work you've done when finished. :-)

It's time to up your game and increase your competitive advantage through yoga!

Yoga for Baseball is specifically designed to address the shoulders, hips, hamstrings and core of the practitioner/player. The shoulders (especially the throwing arm) needs as much healthy movement as possible to avoid injuries and fatigue. With the very quick sprints from base to base and for ground and fly balls, hamstring pulls are very common. To increase balance and strength in the trunk/torso/core for hitting (and throwing) we will work on twisting/rotational movements and some core exercises.

This of course is very suitable for the 'regular, non baseball player' as well.

This class is great for both before and after you play soccer (football). It will help to stretch your very tight hamstrings from the constant running you’re doing. You will also work on your hips, as they tend to get over worked from a lot of play. The idea isn’t to overstretch any one area, it’s more about bringing good attention and care to areas of the body soccer takes a toll on, this will help to prevent injury and increase performance on the field!

Use this class to up your game and increase your competitive advantage through yoga!

This sequence can also benefit others who may not play soccer.
