    2023/08/24

    The beauty of yoga is that it benefits EVERYONE, in so many more ways than one. From Kiddie Cosmic Yoga to Senior's Chair Yoga. For the couch potato learning to strengthening their body, to the adrenalin junkie focusing on calming theirs.

    Ignore the intimidation of a snug yoga outfit, foreign yoga terminology and fancy yoga studios - yoga is for everyone!

  • The Masters Discussion RE-RELEASE
    2023/07/30

    In today’s episode, Coach Michelle and I discuss Masters Athletic Programs; both from a coaching point of view and athlete’s perspective. As the “athlete” in this scenario, I can’t rave enough about competing at this level and this age –

    Here are some Great Reasons to join a Master’s Team:

    1. Wanting a challenge.

    2. Feeling motivated to work harder.

    3. Traveling for competition.

    4. Companionship.

    5. And winning medals... at our age!

  • The Sprint Kayaker
    2023/07/06

    Canoeing and kayaking are low impact activities that can improve your cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength and flexibility. Different versions of the sport can be peaceful and meditative, or can be adrenaline-inducing and exhilarating! This week we talk to Rebecca, who started sprint kayaking (calm water racing) just as Covid was winding down. We discuss how it's been a perfect sport for regular workouts, competing a couple of times a year, building a little resilience to cold water, and staying injury-free!
