Get Ready. Get Set. Go! A Massage Marathon!

April 7, 2024, 1pm-3pm

Self-Massage using Yoga Tune Up Balls for Athletes of All Levels.

No matter if your sport takes you to city streets, mountain trails, or pickle ball courts, you will learn strategies that will help improve performance, heighten proprioception, and reduce the possibility of injury in your legs.

As a group, we will work for about 90 minutes practicing self-massage techniques studying the structures of the lower body and their qualities: feet, shins, calves, quads, hamstrings, bum.

For the final 30 minutes of the class, participants will be encouraged to revisit the areas of their own bodies where they discovered massage techniques of particular value to them in their pursuit of their sport. During this time, the instructor will help participants clarify techniques and strategies so that each participant will feel confident to continue with explorations of self-care on their own.

Appropriate for all levels. All necessary props will be provided by the instructor. If you would like to purchase your own Yoga Tune Up Therapy balls, you may select that option at time of workshop registration or at the end of the workshop.

$40 for workshop OR $55 for workshop plus the purchase of your own Yoga Tune Up Therapy Ball(s).

Leslie Wright shares her deep interest in physical anatomy in her classes, and over time, her students strengthen their own understanding of how their bodies move. Leslie is also a certified Yoga Tune Up instructor—which means that her classes are creative explorations of yoga poses using a diversity of props: blocks, straps, blankets, half-dome rollers, and especially massage balls of various sorts and sizes. Her students routinely use all of the toys in the toy box to support their explorations.
