Yoga for Martial Artists

Yoga literally means "union". Yoga promotes the unity of body, mind, and spirit by creating a state in which we are totally present in every moment and every action.

The benefits of yoga practice include strengthening and toning muscles, releasing tension, increasing flexibility, and revitalising internal organs.

The gentle pace of yoga can be adapted to any level of fitness as it invites people to work with their bodies at their own current level of ability.

This video focuses on yoga postures which increase harmony of body, mind, and spirit.

The yoga practice in this video offers the body a moderately paced method to increase flexibility, strength and balance thereby enhancing any style of martial arts training.

It can be used to maximise the benefits of any vigorous training program, or as its own practice.

Adding a consistent yoga practice to your personal training or martial arts class can prevent pain, soreness, and injury.
