Camp Report from Vail
Barrett Christy's Snowboard and Yoga ReTreat, Vail, USA
This sounds too good for words. Famed pro-rider Barrett Christy is
offering a snowboard and yoga retreat for women.
Lauren and Barrett Christy
"Perfect for women who want to improve their riding while reviving the
spirit
at Vail, in the heart of the Rockies. Combining the best snowboard
coaching with
restorative and strengthening yoga, ReTreat Yourself promises to be both
physically inspiring and mentally rejuvenating."
The combination of yoga with riding is supposed to lessen the risk of
injury, quicken recovery time and improve performance in sports. (Lauren
says) I believe this because I do yoga every week to keep myself in riding
shape.
Barrett Christy has won more X-Games medals than any other athlete in the
history of the Winter X Games, competed in the 1998 Winter Olympics in
Nagano, Japan as a member of the first US Olympic Snowboard team and was
named Female Rider of the Year by Transworld Snowboarding magazine in 2001.
4 days of professional coaching, yoga twice a day. From Jan. 4 through 8.
