Hello and welcome to Intuitive Athlete Yoga!! I'm so stoked you're here.

My name is Lo. I'm a 200hr registered yoga teacher, registered dietitian, owner of Intuitive Athlete, and former D1 athlete turned intuitive athlete. I'm so excited to share a variety of yoga practices to help you cross-train your intuition. Why am I so passionate about this work? I'm glad you asked...

As a former D1 athlete, I had some rigid behaviors and beliefs about how I should move my body, how I should eat, and how I should speak to myself. Yoga was originally a tool to help my athletic performance and was solely a physical practice even after my collegiate athletic career ended. Slowly overtime, my yoga practice expanded from simply a physical practice to a mental, energetic, and spiritual practice and made a positive impact on how I related to my body and food. It's because of this life changing practice that I am so much more at peace in my body, even as I navigate this world as a recreational athlete.

So many of us, especially former competitive athletes and recreational athletes alike, are at war with our bodies. We are often so immersed in a world of rigidity and hyper-vigilance with our movement and eating patterns, that we lose sight of the big picture: a fulfilling life! My goal with creating the Intuitive Athlete community is to help folks free up their time and brain space to pursue things that make their life worth living! I want to promote taking a love-based approach to health, rather than a fear-based approach and for all kinds of active folks to care about moving their bodies and eating what works for them.... but not caring too much. The way I see it, our movement and eating patterns are a resource for a well-lived life, not the end-all-be all goal. I've found that spending time in our body (vs. viewing it solely from the outside!) and using simple techniques to practice listening to our body with compassion and curiosity helps make the shift from a controlling authority over our body to a loving "teammate" with our body.

I'm looking forward to sharing more of my experiences navigating the transition from competitive athlete to a recreational athlete as well as yoga classes, meditations, workshops, and courses (and eventually retreats!!) to help you on your journey to becoming a more intuitive athlete (and human in general!). Hope to see you on your mat soon :) Please reach out to connect! I'd love to hear from you!

Remember: You are enough NOW.
