Time: 01:00 PM 
– 06:00 PM
Location: In Person

Join Leslee Schenk Trzcinski and Lynne Staropoli Boucher.

GREAT for yoga teachers working with athletes – or wanting to – or just to add new creative approaches and gain further alignment understanding and implications.
(This is a module of the larger 100-hour Yoga for Athletes Training that you may be interested in! Check out details for that HERE. Pricing per module significantly reduced in the 100 hour bundle, fyi.)

This is an incredibly informative session for yoga teachers, serious students, and athletes as it narrows right into alignment considerations for athlete bodies, shares key pose cueing recommendations (see a few below) and shares great variations of traditional and non-traditional poses.

Our time together will also reveal several GREAT, tried and true practice sequences (from Leslee and Lynne’s combined decades of working with athletes) to use with athletes/yogis in your own sport or your own practice. We will also spend time working in small groups to come up with a few of YOUR OWN creative sequences. This content is targeting athletes but very relevant and applicable to all. With Leslee and Lynne – at B3Fit Wellness Center, Rochester.

A few unique and effective cues that bolster self-study, curiosity, and compliance with athletes or anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice and effectiveness:

“Your pelvis delivers you into your legs. Let’s focus on that area that is your true center of gravity.” 

“Let the legs do the work of the spine; charging up the legs lets the spine be buoyant.”

“Feel it versus constantly working it.”

“Explore how to draw key energy in through your breath. Seize your breath energy.”

“Create the pose shape, not through effort – but actually through relaxing, breathing, focusing.”

“Synthesize the effectiveness of this sequence, one pose at a time. Allow these shifts to happen.”

And so so much more….

  • A four color hand-out with written information and images that outline key pose sequences shared and the rationale behind why they are effective, with athletes / anyone
