Watch: Yoga for Athletes Teachers’ Lounge: Before, During, and After

My newest class at YogaVibes talks you through timing. You’ll learn techniques to practice before, during, and after a workout, as well as hearing why I chose them. If you were at the free classes I offered during last winter’s tour of REI stores (thanks, prAna!), you’ll get a refresher on the sequences we practiced together.

Yoga Class Description

In this class for athletes, teachers, and everyone, filmed on Day 4 of Sage’s Teaching Yoga to Athletes intensive, we investigate yoga to do before, during, and after a workout. Learn dynamic warmup routines; practice focus techniques that work in a training session or competition; hold static stretches appropriate for right after a workout; and explore a series of reclining twists for deep release and relaxation around the hips, spine, and shoulders. Along the way, Sage explains exactly why and how these poses benefit athletes. Have a block, bolster, and blanket available. (69 mins.)
