Be inspired and encouraged as you listen to Lauren Reese Co-Owner/Yoga Teacher at MOVE+breathe Yoga, fitness and Sports Performance on her journey in health, fitness and becoming a yoga teacher. How important it is to move your body and so much more. How in her worst struggle God showed her the beauty in the struggles. Lauren is a lululemon ambassador and currently has clients who are NFL and MLB athletes. She has been involved in group fitness for over 20 years. She started with teaching aerobics, weight training classes, and triathalons. After several injuries, Lauren found herself in pain. Frustrated – because even though she was “fit”, her body was always hurting – she turned to yoga to find strength and healing for her injuries. Yoga not only helped her feel better physically, but yoga also taught her the importance of balance, both literally and figuratively. Lauren's classes are powerful yet playful and encouraging. Her creative sequencing mirrors her lighthearted personality, and each class is a new experience. Lauren's goal is to help her students find balance for their bodies and their lives. She finds her passion in working with athletes (both privately, with sports teams, and with both college and professional athletes), leading adult yoga retreats, and teaching kids yoga. Lauren was a PrAna featured yogi on REI's Yoga for Athletes Live Tour, and she has studied with Sage Rountree, Jill Miller, and Leslie Kaminoff. Certifications include RYT 200 Lifted Heart Yoga School, Certified Sage Yoga for Athletes Teacher (one of only 33 in the country!), Certified Yoga Tune Up® Teacher, Certified Roll Model Method® Teacher, Certified Functional Movement Systems, Certified Grounded Kids Instructor, and Certified Yoga Fit. "I make sure to honor my time and show up for my students. I say no to things so I can say yes and show up the best way possible."

Is yoga just fancy stretching? Nope. Today we’re going to go into the specifics of why cyclists should consider yoga, from the physical literacy it can provide, to the strength and conditioning element it offers, from the potential for an improved inflammatory profile to better recovery and relaxation.   It turns out yoga is far more than fancy stretching or breathing techniques, it can be a powerful tool to aid health and performance.   No episode about yoga would be complete without an overview of the many varieties of the practice. It often comes down to a simple question: How do you like your peppers: mild, medium, or hot!?  We walk through the six major types of yoga and when each is the most appropriate, given the time of year, your ability, and your training load.   Finally, we’ll discuss the risks of doing yoga. There are some, but thankfully they’re minor and can be easily avoided.  Our featured guest today is Sage Rountree, an internationally recognized authority in yoga for athletes and an endurance sports coach with certifications from USA Triathlon, USA Cycling, and the Road Runners’ Club of America. She is the author of The Athlete’s Guide to Yoga among serval other books on yoga.  We’ll also hear from eSports racer Jen Real, racer, Paralympian and coach Jen Sharp, and our very own Colby Pearce for more thoughts on the benefits of yoga for athletes.  Now, select your pepper...  Let's make you fast!  Learn more about your ad choices.
