Why Do Yoga With Us?
I have spent over half of my life coaching swimmers and multi-sport athletes. After searching for a more effective way to train on dry land I began implementing yoga into athletes programs.
The benefits I saw them experience both physically and mentally were powerful. I knew if the practices were designed specifically for swimmers we would see even better results.
That was a huge factor of why I became a yoga teacher. Now after designing swimming-specific practices for the better part of the last decade I want to share them with you.
I want these practices to be a way to not only enable you to improve your performance, but to increase your wellness and keep you in the water for many years to come.

We’re Not Only Professionals. We’re Athletes Who Get It.
We teach yoga to swimmers because we are swimmers.
We understand...
What it means to push yourself beyond your comfort zone. We have survived rigorous workout regimens, shoulder pain, numb limbs, and waiting hours just to swim a 60-second race.
We also understand...
The immense joy that comes from finishing your race, looking up at the board, and seeing a time you’ve been wanting to see for months, and the excitement that fills your chest when you hear people cheering for you each time you come up for air.
We haven’t just studied it. We’ve lived it.
And we know the one truth every competitive swimmer knows— that we lose ourselves in our passion, but we also find ourselves there too.

"Since retiring from competitive swimming, yoga has been my go-to workout to stay fit, and Jeff Grace has been my go-to yoga teacher and expert.
Jeff's depth of knowledge enables me to dive deeper into my practice, stay balanced and remember to leave it all on the mat."

"As an aging competitive masters swimmer, both flexibility and core strength have become of increasing importance in my dryland training regimen. Unfortunately, like many time constrained adults, conventional "stretching" often ends up on the backburner (it's boring). Enter Jeff - he has created a focused program to target my swimming specific needs as a sprinter and has effectively improve my mobility in the pool."
I highly recommend Jeff's program for anyone trying to maximize training efficiency while keeping it interesting."
Brenton Ford

"It can be tricky to incorporate yoga correctly for the specific needs and limitations of an endurance athlete.
Jeff’s program broke these barriers. He designs specific routines that address all these needs.
No more wasted time doing posses that don’t benefit you, or time wasted driving to classes the aren’t specific to your performance needs.
Thanks Jeff for helping my team have better recovery, mobility and performance benefits from incorporating yoga into their program."

Barbara Halls

"As a masters competitive swimmer in the UK I have always known that yoga for swimmers is highly recommended, but I never seemed to be able to find the time previously to fit it in.
I am enjoying having developed a yoga practice and that is all thanks to Jeff. I am used to fast paced activities but I’m enjoying the control and concentration yoga requires."
Raben Dommann

“Jeff is very knowledgeable in the practice of yoga and how it connects to the sport of swimming, and has helped me so much over the years.
By combining the art of yoga with the specificities of the sport of swimming, I have been able to improve my swimming specific strength and flexibility, which has allowed me to progress myself in the pool.
The way that he is able to allow me to disconnect myself from all the distractions around me, while finding a deeper connection with my body and mind, has made his class an amazing experience for me as an athlete.”
