Prisca and I, along with Laura Marx (our expert on anatomy and biomechanics) had the opportunity to teach yoga to the US Bobsled and Skeleton Federation at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. On June 3rd, we had a two hour session in the morning and another one in the afternoon.
It is such an honor to work with this level of athlete. They learn so quickly and are so in tune with their bodies. They are focused and determined. We hope that Pulse Yoga will become a part of their regular training program. We left them with Pulse Yoga I, II, III and Express and our Yoga for Athletes Fitness System Book.
If any of you from the team have any comments about the workshop, please feel free to post them here. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to work with you.
The U.S. bobsled and skeleton athletes that attended the national team camp found the yoga sessions extremely valubale, and many of them have continued to practice with the DVDs provided. I know our coaching staff plans to implement yoga into their training sessions, and we are incredibly grateful for the time you spent with us. A HUGE “Thank you” from the U.S. bobsled and skeleton team athletes, coaches and staff!
Thanks Amanda. It was such a great experience for us. Please let everyone know that we are available for any questions that may come up during their practice with the dvds.
