Under 10-minute Pre-Surf Stretch Routine

My current, go-to, Pre-Surf Stretch for when my body is feeling stiff and a bit surfed-out. This sequence could also be nice for a brief Active Recovery practice post-training or post-surf/sport

Featured on the Manduka Blog!

It was an honor to have the opportunity to write a piece for the Manduka Blog as a part of the Manduka x Gerry Lopez collection launch. In this article, I share my personal experiences with surfing and yoga and how I view the two as similar spiritual paths that reconnect us to life.

Simple. But not always easy.

Now don't get me wrong, sometimes simple can be easy. And that's great. And sometimes there is a place for complexity as well. But the simple, the simple is available. Accessible. And when noticed and practiced regularly, the simple can support us in coming back to center. Back to what's true.

Simple. But not always easy.

MFR Tutorial: Relief through the Feet (7min.)

MFR Tutorial: Relief through the Feet (7min.)

This is one of my favorite myofascial release (MFR) techniques that I do pretty much daily! Use a therapy ball to release tension and restore tissue integrity in the feet. Our feet are our foundation, and if you’re like me you may spend a lot of time on them! Give your feet some relief and notice the effects in the rest of the body.
