Feeling stiff and sore after cycling (and blaming the cold weather)? Trying to better manage your heart rate, power output and/or overall performance? Then explore the benefits of Yoga for Cycling in a tailored 3 part series for SPR Members in July!
What
There are many ways the practise of yoga can benefit cyclists including improved strength, flexibility and balance however a lesser known one is regulating breath with movement which has untold benefits on and off the bike. We have tailored this series to activating, strengthening and releasing the muscles and fascia (connective tissue) we use in cycling. The classes will be a strong Vinyasa flow for 50 minutes with 25 mins of restorative Yin to finish.
When
Tuesdays July 13, 20 and 27 from 18.15 – 19.30
Where
North Perth’s Lesser Hall (next to the Town Hall), 24 View St, North Perth
Who
Guiding us will be Eve Gindein, a senior teacher and lead facilitator at some of Perth’s largest and most successful yoga studios who also trains new teachers on registered YTT200 and advanced teacher trainings. Eve discovered a love for yoga after a serious scooter accident in 2010 rendered her fairly immobile. Her weekly practise evolved into a daily yoga (and meditation) practise and subsequently she became a teacher to share her passion and relatable knowledge about how and why yoga can transform the mind and body. Eve’s classes always offer anatomically intelligent sequencing combined with challenge, levity and humour.
For those aspiring to follow in Eve’s footsteps and share the gift of yoga with others, embarking on a Yoga Teacher Training Bali retreat can be a life-changing experience. Immersed in the serene beauty of Bali’s landscapes, aspiring teachers delve deep into the philosophy, anatomy, and practice of yoga under the guidance of seasoned instructors. This immersive environment fosters not only a comprehensive understanding of yoga but also personal growth and self-discovery. Through intensive training modules and hands-on teaching practice, participants emerge not just as certified yoga instructors but as compassionate leaders ready to inspire others on their own transformative journeys.
