SEAN CONLEY - NFL Kicker/Author/Yoga (5-3-23)
SEAN CONLEY, a former college and NFL kicker who 'discovered the true meaning of sports and life and found happiness in the most unexpected way'. We will also discuss his book, "The Point After: How One Kicker Learned there was More to Life than the NFL".
Over the past twenty years, he has taught yoga, meditation, and mindfulness in Pittsburgh to everyone from parents and kids to NFL teams, professional and college athletes and coaches and scores of individuals looking for health, peace and healing in challenging times.
FROM HIS WEBSITE:
"A native of Erie, Pennsylvania, Sean Conley fell in love with kicking at age eight. After playing college football at the University of Pittsburgh, he began a dramatic, abbreviated NFL career, playing for the Detroit Lions, Indianapolis Colts, New York Jets, and finally for the Scottish Claymores in Europe. That journey came with a price. As a result of overtraining, Sean suffered career-ending injuries. As part of his rehabilitation and regrouping, Sean became a dedicated yoga practitioner at the suggestion of his wife, Karen, a yoga instructor. He eventually embraced the mindfulness, meditation, and philosophy of yoga as a new life direction, and became a yoga teacher himself. He and his wife now own Amazing Yoga in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Sean is the author of the Amazon Best Seller Amazing Yoga (Autumn House Press, 2010)and lives in Pittsburgh with Karen and their four children.
He’s the author of The Point After: How One Resilient Kicker Learned there was More to Life than the NFL. Sean has written for numerous publications including Yoga Journal and has been featured on dozens of podcasts. He recently gave a Ted Talk about pursing dreams, resilience, reinvention, and gratitude.
Sean has been teaching for over 20 years. He leads yoga trainings and retreats all over the world. He has shared his love of yoga with lawyers, Hollywood actors, doctors, and people from all walks of life. He has worked with professional sports teams including the Pittsburgh Steelers, Penguins, and The University of Pittsburgh football and basketball teams.
Sean is also a Tree Ambassador for Community Carbon Trees which is protecting and preserving the rainforests in Central America."
