Benefits of Yoga for Athletes and Performers:
Yoga is a valuable tool to assist with the mental practice of gaining control of emotional states and learn how to effectively cope with automatic stress responses that may impede positive results. Yoga is the process of paying attention to the present moment and calming the mind to bring greater ease to even the most challenging situations.
Yoga practice teaches us to be resilient and master change: the skill of stepping beyond our edge, physically, mentally and emotionally. Asana practice, the physical practice of yoga, offers basic training in resilience by strengthening the mind and body each time we make the physical effort to stay in a pose that causes discomfort.
Improving not only flexibility, but also posture, body mechanics, and awareness, yoga can literally make every form of training you do more effective and efficient. It can significantly improve all aspects of performance including power, speed, focus and confidence.
