20 Minute ‘Yoga for Surfers’ Class (Video Below)

Back in the early 70’s Gerry Lopez was known as the, ‘King of Pipeline’ – he had flow, timing and style to become the, ‘worlds best tube rider’. Today, nearly 50 years on, Gerry surfs fresh powder in big mountains and yoga helps him maintain his strength and his flow.  He may have been one of the first surfers to truly benefit from yoga.

Today many athletes including some of the worlds greatest surfers implement yoga practices into their surf training regimes. Yoga enhances surfing performance by improving postural balance, flexibility and breath mechanics – all vital for surfers. Yoga also improves moods and the ability focus – hugely beneficial for all surfers.

Yoga is one of the best exercises for surfers.

Physical yoga is based on stability and flexibility – which is the foundation of all athletic ability. From beginners through to professional surfers, adding stability and flexibility exercises into your surf training will improve how your body moves, both in and out of the water.

NB: Some Yoga can be dangerous, particularly if you have spinal or joint issues, so personalized flexibility and stretching with personalized strength conditioning is best. It’s probably not wise to rock up to an advanced yoga class off the bat.

Please note the following prior to performing the Yoga for surfers video below.

• This is a Yin yoga class so the first 3 minutes are very slow.
• Yin Yoga is designed to slow down the central nervous system to allow deep relaxation and enhanced flexibility.
• Any dizziness or sharp pains stop immediately and consult physician.
• It’s recommended to perform in a warm environment.
• Best when watched on a large screen or monitor.
• Stay hydrated & simply follow along with Jack from Yoga Republic.
