Yoga For Climbers

I began climbing as a cross training for my yoga practice, looking for physical training to balance my softer yoga practice. But, the first time I walked into a climbing gym I was surprised to see mindful movements all around. I was surrounded by a moving meditation. Each climber was thoughtful, inquisitive and connected as they moved up the wall. And if something went wrong it was a chance to take a moment and reflect, to discover the undiscovered. The physical movements were a delicate balance between strength, balance and agility. Let’s just say I was hooked.
