My Joga Story

I’ve been a life long athlete and the JOGA program spoke to me from an athletic perspective the very first day of practice in 2016! I was looking for a modality that fit my needs and my personality. I love the athletic-minded approach and the science behind what we do and WHY we do it. Even now, after coaching 600+ JOGA sessions, I still find excitement in hitting a benchmark!

My Joga Story

I am passionate about being able to give youth in sport, elite athletes and the everyday human, tools to help them achieve a superior functioning body. It's not just about the feeling it in their bodies but understanding each movement, breath pattern and relaxation element and how this can help them. My focus is to keep all my clients challenged, injury-free and wanting to do JOGA weekly.

My Joga Story

JOGA is the definition of “Active Recovery”. Offering the perfect alternative for athletes to prevent overtraining, allowing them to still “Feel the burn” without the burnout and to use breath and relaxation to strengthen both their mind and nervous system. My favourite part of being a coach: Introducing athletes to a challenging new way for them to rediscover their physicality.

My Joga Story

The moment I was introduced to JOGA, I knew right away that I had found the solution for people like me. What I love about JOGA is that it not only prepares your body physically for competition, but it also prepares your mind. As a teacher and coach, I want to be able to give athletes the opportunity to become better movers /players /competitors and JOGA can do that.

My Joga Story

My athletic upbringing gave me the experience to know that athletes need structure, challenge, and results to stay engaged. My study of yoga gives me an understanding of how important breathwork, movement, and relaxation are for recovery. JOGA brings these two worlds together by pairing safe, accessible bio-mechanic movements with cognizant, controlled breathwork.

My Joga Story

What I love about JOGA is that it brings the athlete/mover into a greater awareness of their mind and body in space through movements that are carefully guided to keep the body safe but physically and mentally challenged. In movement, it isn’t always enough to know ‘how’, but to know and feel ‘why’. JOGA answers the ‘how’ and ‘why’ through the use of fundamental concepts.

My Joga Story

As a passionate pilates instructor and all around fitness enthusiast, I am always on the lookout for new and different ways to train. I have personally found traditional yoga classes a bit inaccessible for my body, but after my first JOGA session I was hooked. JOGA allows us to build mobility, stability and strength while integrating breath work and injury prevention.

My Joga Story

As an athletic trainer who specializes in Combat Sports at the Elite Amateur Level, specifically boxing and wrestling I turned to JOGA as a way to enhance the recovery process for the athletes that I work with. For me, the benefits of JOGA and how it impacts the Combat Sports Athlete are incredible. JOGA is great for my athletes for either rehabilitation or for injury prevention.

My Joga Story

I’ve been an RMT since 1998 and I always felt I needed to give my massage clients more when it came to their “rehab” and a better understanding of the why and how they should be moving! mI found JOGA in 2017 and it was a natural fit for myself and my massage practice! I love that JOGA is for anyone and it’s not about being flexible or being a professional athlete!

I am a Registered Massage therapist with a special interest in sports performance and rehab. I knew I needed another tool if I wanted to be successful and offer something more for my athletes and that’s how I found JOGA! I was so intrigued at the work and science behind the program I knew it was exactly what my athletes needed to get to EARN THEIR EDGE.

My Joga Story

I am a natural athlete myself but suffered reoccurring injuries throughout high school. In my journey to healing myself, physically and emotionally, my chiropractor pointed me towards yoga. As a mom of multi-sport athletes, I saw the need for injury prevention and knew yoga was missing something. I went looking for the perfect program and discovered JOGA.

My Joga Story

I have always led an active lifestyle. I played competitive sports through my youth and still love finding ways to move my body which are challenging and fun. JOGA is one of those ways. What makes JOGA such an amazing program is the unique cueing system and creating stability before mobility and moving within the person's range of motion ensures everybody stays safe.

TESTIMONIALS

“My name is Tyler Russell. I play hockey for the Los Angeles Jr Kings. I have been practicing JOGA for over 2 years. JOGA has helped me get stronger, especially with the strength in my legs. I really enjoy doing all of the JOGA exercises along with the salutation and the stretches. I consider JOGA a secret weapon because my body is in pain during the workout but I know that the pain is what will make me stronger. My JOGA coach, Carlie Chiovetti, is awesome. She is great at teaching all of the exercises and really cares that we are making improvements every week to help me be a stronger athlete.”
