Yoga Workshop: Yoga for Skiers

August 20, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

What’s the secret to feeling your best on the slopes? Cross-training! Join us for an all-levels yoga workshop specifically targeted at engaging and stretching the muscle groups used in alpine and Nordic skiing. We will begin with a gentle vinyasa flow to warm the body, transitioning into a series of deep yin stretches to fortify the connective tissues, a fantastic way to build resilience and prevent injury. Not only will you walk away from class feeling deeply restored, but you will also walk away with the tools to know how to properly warm up and cool down after a long day on the slopes. This workshop is specifically for winter athletes to understand the proper muscle stretches for injury prevention. Julia Woods, certified yoga instructor, will teach slowly, providing opportunities to stop, ask questions, and dive deeper into anatomy.
