Transform Your Endurance Training with Yoga: A Course for Everyday Athletes

Are you tired of feeling stiff, sore, and prone to injury? 

Do you want to enhance your performance as an everyday endurance athlete while prioritizing your body's well-being?  

Yoga Strength for Endurance Athletes is a unique six-class yoga course designed specifically for everyday endurance athletes - cyclists, runners, and triathletes - like you. 

This kind of yoga is something you can do all year long, regardless of your training status. 

And I do the short classes in my living room to remind you that you can do your yoga sessions anywhere.  

Plus, as you will see, I’m a little awkward and move a little slowly! 

I’m proof that anyone can do yoga to help their endurance performance!

Discover Yoga Strength for Endurance Athletes: a 6-class course designed for cyclists, runners, and triathletes to enhance performance, prevent injuries, and build resilience.

Why Yoga?

  • Tailored for Everyday Endurance Athletes: Created by an experienced yoga instructor who understands the needs of endurance athletes..
  • Injury Prevention: Helps prevent injury by strengthening your whole body and building durability so you can train more.

  • Builds Resilience: Builds resilience and durability to avoid injuries while exercising.
  • Relaxed Atmosphere: Expect a relaxed and casual environment, sometimes even meeting my cute little dog, Joy!

How we do things differently

Meet your instructor

I’m an experienced yoga instructor with a passion for helping endurance athletes improve their performance and well-being. 

As an older athlete, I understand the challenges and limitations of age and physical activity. 

My goal is to guide you through a transformative journey where you emerge stronger, more resilient, and ready to tackle any challenge that comes your way.

Join me on this journey to unlock your full potential as an athlete and embrace the power of Yoga.

Here’s how we do things differently in Yoga Strength:

  1. We spend a lot of time practicing belly breathing through our noses.
  2. We use the inhale and exhale to guide all of our movement, including within poses. 
  3. We hold poses for up to several minutes - in whatever position works for you - to practice our breath and build strength.
  4. When we hold the poses, we inhale to relax our body and exhale to deepen the pose. 
  5. We focus on hip and core work in all directions to build stability, strength, and mobility. 

How the Yoga Strength for Endurance Athlete course works

This is yoga that anyone can do anywhere at any time. 

Each week, you’ll get a different practice that gradually increases in challenging poses. 

Each week, we’ll do some base poses, a balance pose that strengthens hips and core, 

We always start with breath practice, learning to draw breath in through our noses and into our bellies.

Through deep, focused breathing and full isometric activation of large muscle groups, you will build a foundation of strength, stability, and mobility that will make you faster, stronger, and more injury-resistant. 

First class is free

As a way of trying before you buy, I’m offering the first class in this course for free. 

There are six classes in this course, and each has a little different sequence, including different balance poses. 

The course is suitable for everyone, regardless of experience, and I show you modifications to help you manage all of the poses, especially the more challenging balance poses.

  1. The "Yoga Strength for Endurance Athletes" course is designed specifically for everyday endurance athletes like cyclists, runners, and triathletes.
  2. The course is accessible to all, regardless of flexibility or yoga experience, and can be done anywhere, anytime.
