Charmaine's running history and Personal records...
Why would an ATHLETE do Yoga?
You love your sport but sometimes your body just doesn't move as smoothly as you'd like. Also your breathing is labored and your energy low. So you train harder and just as you become fit, the injuries start and you're forced to back off training to recover. How are you going to improve performance if each time you ramp up your training, you get hurt?
There is a way - more and more athletes are turning to Yoga. WHY? To increase energy through effective breathing, for protection against injury through correction of structural misalignment, and to remain active whilst healing when they do become injured. How does yoga work?
To get started submit the Contact us form to sign up for classes, or to learn more. Your instructor has 19 years of distance running experience and remains injury free by practicing Yoga!
How has it changed you mind/body/spirit? How has it changed your outlook and the way you interact with people and the world around you? Would you recommend that others take up yoga, and if so, why?
