Teen Yoga & Yoga for Athletes
We will cover 3 main areas: breathing, movement and practical use of the two. There will be slight differences between the teen class and athlete class in terms of focus and intensity.
- Breathing – Students will learn the functions of the respiratory system, the importance of proper breathing, and benefits of staying aware of their breath. We will practice diaphragm control and several techniques to increase lung capacity.
- Movements – We will practice various basic stretches and postures, focusing on maintaining breath awareness while building strength and flexibility.
- Practical – Students will learn how to shape their personal practice to fit their needs. We will practice more isometric movements for correcting imbalances and breathing for specific needs (sleep, focus, energy, etc).
