The Iron Butterfly

On this episode, I talk to skating coach and yoga instructor Sarah Neal about the ways yoga can help with skating! This is more mental than physical: it can help us focus as well as deal with anxiety or stress. Also great for retiring skaters, as it can help bring clarity to your next move. All this and more, take a listen!
