What It’s Like to Teach Yoga to Football Players

Aug 26, 2024

Yoga for athletes is NOT athletic yoga! In fact, teaching yoga to athletes can feel a lot like leading a gentle yoga class—or even yoga for seniors.

In this video, I debrief my assistant Alexis Besosa after Alexis has joined me to work with a college football team deep into training camp.

You might be surprised to hear that yoga’s simple lessons are the most powerful for athletes, and that low-to-the-ground, easy sequences go down best.

If you’ve been interested in teaching yoga to athletes, this discussion on yoga for football players is a great starting point. You’ll hear that you might already have a lot of the tools you need, especially if you teach yoga for older people, gentle yoga, or yoga for beginners.
