Fly By Night!Toronto's MEC and prAna Clinic successful:)

Hello Toronto... and hello to all of the great people who showed up tonight for the MEC and prAna sponsored "Yoga for Athletes" clinic.  I was very pleased with the rowdy bunch(rowdy, at a yoga clinic, yup;) that made their way out despite the rain. They had so much energy that the roof at MEC almost blew right off its hinges. I had an awesome time sharing the benefits of yoga for their sports, but also for sharing the great stories of how it's helped the athletes that I've worked with at Notre Dame.

 Here are some photo's from the event:)

The ride to Victoria

I'm sitting in a café, quietly sipping coffee on the morning after the Yoga for Athletes Clinic that I hosted last night at the MEC store. The weather is incredible! The sun is bright and the temperature is just perfect:)

I wanted to share some pictures from the fun ferry ride I took from Vancouver to Victoria, as well as some shots from the clinic.

 

Enjoy:)

Vancouver was a smashing success!

Good morning to all of you great people! I hope all is swell for you in Midwest( though I've seen it's raining and chilly there;() as it is for me here in the Western part of Canada!

Last nights clinic at the MEC was AWESOME! There was a great turnout, a strong participation of our practice, and thoughtful questions from the class about how yoga can help them in their training.   I feel so honored to be a resource for the people so far in Calgary and here in Vancouver. I can't wait for tonight!!!

 

Speaking of tonight...

I had better get going so I won't miss the ferry to Victoria and the third clinic on this Canadian tour.

 

More to come..

Discussing and fielding questions from the group:)

A strong practice is of focus, dedication, and being present.

Calgary stop on the YFA Tour

Good morning to you all from Calgary! I had an amazing clinic last night at the MEC store here and I couldn't have been more pleased with the reception. The people in attendance were excited to learn some news ways to help with their recovery from their training for marathons, bike races, and hiking expeditions.

A new part of this tour  is raffling off a prAna  yoga mat at the end the clinic! So our first winner was Holly from Calgary! What was awesome is that Holly's mom and grandmother also were in attendance for the clinic! Now that's what I call a true family hat trick;) 

 

Well, I'm off to Vancouver to host the second clinic on the tour:)

 

More to come!

Namaste:)
