Strength & Mobility Classes For Young Athletes

Since the age of 6 my son as played soccer and as he turned 11 started to experience injury after injury - glutes, quads and hamstrings all took a hit.
​
When kids approach puberty, rapid changes in muscles and bones leave them at risk of injury when they play sport. Injuries at this time of life may predispose our teens to health problems later in life and also risk them dropping out of sport altogether.

Prior to puberty, sports injuries are very uncommon, but the change in muscles and bones around puberty is a key reason the injury rate increases. It's believed that the increase in the length of bones at this time increases the risk of fractures, as muscles may stay tight and flexibility is low
.

When you’re on the pitch you need to make decisions and act fast. That means changing direction quickly, back peddling, sprinting, passing. If muscles are short and insufficiently warmed up, injuries can occur.

These classes will aim to stretch and lengthen muscles, increase flexibility and range of motion and prevent injury in our young sportspeople. ​

Yoga brings many more benefits that go beyond physical


Mental
Yoga stimulates both sides of the brain and provides tools for coping with stress. By increasing attention span, alertness, memory and retention of information improves. Regular classes provide an opportunity to switch off and relax the mind. 

Emotional
Yoga builds self esteem and acceptance, generating feelings of happiness, wellbeing and peace. 

Social
Yoga builds confidence, communication and listening skills
