Yoga is a 4000 year old art form that is designed to bring a persons body, mind and essence into "union" or harmony. Through various challenging poses or stretches. Yoga provides a number of physical benefits, including flexibility, balance, strength, endurance and improved respiration. Mental benefits include confidence, concentration, discipline, patience, clarity and peace of mind.
At the core of Yoga is the role of one's breath. The nature of your breathing patterns has a great deal to do with the quality of your state of minds concentration, and ultimately, the quality of your performance. Yoga will enable you to make the connection between physical and mental well being. And it is through this connection that internal trust and confidence can be developed in all areas of sports and life.

Yoga is one of the most relaxing forms of exercise. I used to go all the time to hot yoga to relieve all of my outside stress and boy did it work! Going to hot yoga in sweatpants and a long sleeve shirt is an even better workout. It is a wonderful way to work up a great sweat!
