Yoga for the Whole Athlete
A successful athlete is a balanced athlete. Even with the best intentions, repetitive motion activities tend to create imbalance in the body either through the shortening/tightening of soft tissue, misalignment of skeletal structure, or over stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system (stress response).
Yoga provides us with multiple tools to address imbalance on many levels. The postures (asanas) help to create harmony in the physical body, realigning, restoring and maximizing quality of health and physical functioning. A balanced and consistent asana practice helps to improve:
• Circulation
• Freedom of Movement
• Alignment and Mobility of Joints
• System Function
• Muscular Recovery
• Awareness and Concentration
• Equilibrium of Strength
• Postural Deviations
• Core Strength
• Injury Reduction
