Yoga for cross-training? It’s always a yes! As their official exercise partner, we recently invited members of the DHL Stormers and the Cape Town City Football Club for a Yoga experience at Virgin Active Point so they could feel the benefits of adding Yoga to their cross-training regime.
Thabo Nodada, Tashreeq Morris, Shane Roberts, Douglas Mapfumo, Mnombo Zwelendaba, Ali Vermaak, Kade Wolhuter and Keke Morabe joined Virgin Active Yoga instructor, Lee-Ann Elliot as she put the athletes through their paces and introduced them to Yoga at Virgin Active and how it can be used as a tool to boost performance and aid recovery.

A huge thanks to all the players, we hope you enjoyed the experience as much as we did.
