I am no Athlete, So this only goes to prove that Yoga for Athletes is not only for Athletes. I only started yoga a couple of months ago, and found its benefits so unbelievable that I need to share this with you. We’ve all heard at some or other time that its good for you, but when do you actually decide to take action and do something about it.

By the time I reached 50, I was feeling aches and pains here and there, especially my back. I was power walking every morning, in the past all my aches and pains disappeared once I started walking.  But it didn’t seem to help any more. Finally I went to a Doctor had an x ray, and discovered that I had a problem at my L4-5 lower back . The Doctor prescribed physiotherapy. I took myself off to Yoga lessons. At the advice of Lisa Hattem (below)
