Ten minutes to demo Michelle's staggeringly popular Yoga with Weights class, held every Tuesday and Thursday morning at the Bainbridge Athletic Club. This particular class satisfies many of the tangential needs for triathletes, cyclists and runners, namely, flexibility, core strength, diaphragmatic breathing, focus and, perhaps most importantly, the practice of fluid, flowing, dynamic movement. It quite possibly, is the perfect yin to the extreme yang of our monster powers blasts. I find it a terrific balance between the two poles of practice:
The North Pole: High-Intensity intervals with bouts of maximal power output. M, W & Sat.
The South Pole: Range of Motion, stretching, deep core engagement, focus and breath. T & Th.
We are back in the pool on Friday. With Sunday being a long ride day.
Please enjoy the season, we head back to the weight room on October 1. The summer is about to begin and it is about fun, riding, racing and....
Yoga with Michelle.
Namaste

i like the idea of shutting down some of my mental chatter with some of michelle's classes. that got my attention when she said 'mental' like four times at the beginning of that video.
It is a great way to calm the mind and create a deeper mind-body connection. Michelle totally gets it and is a wonderful teacher. You should try it. Most mornings there are five or six regular spinners in her class.
