Particular attention will be paid to the psoas muscle. This is a muscle which represents the keystone on which a balanced and well integrated body rests. 'It is from the area of the psoas that wise women and wise men ground themselves.' - so says Liz Koch – author of The Psoas Book. This is a particularly important muscle for the sports person as imbalances can adversely affect postural alignment and impinge on mobility within the pelvis and groin. It acts as a bridge between the spine and the pelvis and students will examine its location, role and function.
Yoga has a role to play in the preparation of a sportsperson / team or can form part of a warming up or cooling down sequence for sports people while a restorative practice can aid the recovery process . Students will develop an understanding of how to plan a yoga class tailored for a sportsperson / team to meet their specific requirements.
Group exercises will be undertaken throughout the course to reinforce topics covered and ensure that students have a thorough grasp of all of the concepts.
Supervised Lesson planning assignments will be undertaken by students with a view to developing an increased understanding of how to adequately prepare a class(es) based on the needs of a sports person / group.
Comprehensive and sport specific lesson plans are supplied as part of the course material.

Student Testimonial
"If you are searching for a `Yoga for Athletes` course, look no further, Santosha Yoga is the place you need to be. This was an amazing course from the start. The team of tutors, and of course Paddy himself is what really makes this course special. They are highly experienced professionals in their own field and cover a comprehensive amount of material in 4 days. You will leave with an impressive number of sports specific lesson plans that become your bible! Paddys warm welcome, down to earth approach and humour will immediately put you at ease. He has a unique teaching style and it is refreshing to meet a teacher teach from the heart and want to share so much with you, there is no ego in Santosha. It was the perfect choice for me and paved my way to work more intensively with athletes." Avril Mullally, Roscommon Yoga
