At IMG Academy, the student-athletes participate in a regular yoga program during their sport season to help them maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle. Each team typically practices yoga once per week during their season. The purpose of these sessions is to build awareness in the young athletes of their breath and the body-mind connection, to strengthen the body, build better balance, increase flexibility, and allow for complete relaxation.
