Are you an athlete seeking to improve your performance? In Yoga for Athletes: Practices and Techniques for Force, Flow, and Freedom, physiotherapist Alicia Malcolm Anderson brings you yoga-infused techniques for propulsion, mobility, strength, and coordination that you can use to prime your body and mind for your sport. You can also use the classes in this program to support your training days and/or pre-hab training. Overhead athletes, contact sport athletes, and non-contact sport athletes will all benefit from these classes, where Alicia shares exercises designed to help you maximize your movement potential.
In five of the six classes, she focuses on specific areas of the body, offering you drills and alignment suggestions that can help you notice where your range of motion might be limited, where you might be compensating, as well as how to move with more awareness and ease. She also offers suggestions to help you lessen your risk of injury in your sport. And to address the stress that athletes can experience before and during performance, Alicia guides you through a breath practice to help you regulate your nervous system.
The classes include: Generating Propulsion Through the Foot and Ankle, Hip and Knee Activation Drills; Bending and Shifting for Lower Body Function; Articulating Suspension and Compression Through the Spine and Pelvis; Breathing to Regulate Force, Power, and Relaxation; and Reaching and Twisting Through the Upper Body.
Get ready to build more movement integrity for your sport!
