Yoga for Athletes

Prior to discovering Yoga, Dawn was quite athletic, playing competitively at Provincial levels, Track and Field, Field Hockey, and AAA Basketball. It is her unique athletic interest and background, combined with her passion for Yoga, that allows her to specialize in Yoga for Athletes.

Benefits of Yoga for Athletes

• Specific programs designed to improve athletes’ performances, prevent and rehabilitate back pain, relax tired legs, release shoulder and neck tension
• Prevents injuries and speeds up rehabilitation process
• Relaxation, concentration and mental imagery techniques are used specifically for the sport at hand
• Helps correct muscle imbalances of one-sided sports (e.g. racquet sports, field hockey, ice hockey, throwing events, bowling, golf, etc.)
• Takes into account hectic schedules (individual demands of balancing school or work, or both, with sports and social life) by coming to you and working with your schedule
• Improves team dynamic and bonding – the team that practices (Yoga) together stays together!
