The Studio, a Yoga Studio located in downtown Madison, WI on the corner of John Nolen and Williamson St in the historic Machinery Row building, is offering an amazing cross-training series for athletes:
Yoga for Athletes in Training: The Series
This is a four week series where each class will focus on:
**Flexibility: **Opening the areas that tighten during intense training
**Strength Diversity: **Full engagement of the core and other support muscle groups
Restoration: Full relaxation of the body and mind…allowing the ‘rest’ necessary to achieve your personal best.
Each week will be themed on a specific area of the body:
Legs: Working with stabilization for all major joints with a lot of love to hammier, calves and quads.Hips: IT work, hip flexors and movements that ease hip tension and ease the low back.Shoulders, Neck and Arms: Releasing those super tight areas that get tension from running and cycling for miles.Back/Full Body Focus: Coming back to some of the tightest ares, focusing on specific twists for lats and low back.
This series is held in our heated Studio A to help release muscle tension and build heat tolerance for Summer training sessions and races.
**WHEN: **Four consecutive Sundays 3:30-4:30pm. June 1st, 8th, 15th & 22nd, 2014.
**THE INSTRUCTOR: **Meet The Studio instructor Kate Moore. Kate has trained for several marathons and triathlons herself.
‘Whether I was training for a marathon or triathlon, my yoga practice helped build strength and endurance. It also provided the flexibility that I needed in order to keep myself injury free. Over the course of a few months though, I began to notice that my practice was not only a fantastic way to cross-train for my next athletic event, but that it also left me feeling energized and light on my feet.’
