Recovery is a key part of fitness, and is often neglected. When we go too long without proper recovery practices, we accumulate fatigue, and that fatigue can lead to sub-par performance in most cases and injury in the worst cases. In this workshop, we will cover lifestyle adjustments, recovery practices, and supplementation to help you bolster your training with proper recovery.

Power, or the ability to move weight quickly, is a crucial yet often overlooked component of fitness. More than just a tool for athletes, power training directly enhances daily life by improving strength, agility, and overall functionality. The benefits are wide-ranging and include:

What is a sound bath? A sound bath is a meditative experience where participants are immersed in various sounds produced by instruments such as singing bowls, drums, and chimes to promote relaxation and healing.
What do I do in a sound bath? In a sound bath, you typically lie down comfortably and allow the sound vibrations to wash over you, inducing a state of deep relaxation and often leading to a meditative state.
I don’t meditate. Can I still take this class? Yes, you can still benefit from a sound bath class even if you don't meditate regularly. The experience is more about relaxation and immersion in sound rather than traditional meditation techniques.
What should I wear? Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to relax and lie down easily. Avoid anything too restrictive or uncomfortable.
What do I need to bring? You may want to bring a yoga mat to lie on, a blanket for warmth, a pillow for comfort, an eye mask for greater relaxation, and maybe a water bottle for hydration.
Why would I want to attend a sound bath? A sound bath may improve sleep quality, reduce stress and anxiety, promote deep relaxation, and support overall well-being through the harmonizing effects of sound vibrations.
What should I expect to feel during and after a sound bath session? During a sound bath session, you can expect to feel deeply relaxed, experience a sense of calmness, and possibly enter a meditative state. Afterward, you may feel rejuvenated, mentally clear, and emotionally balanced. Some participants also experience multiple nights of restful sleep after a sound bath.
How does sound healing work, and what scientific evidence supports its efficacy? Sound healing works by using specific frequencies and vibrations to resonate with the body's energy centers (chakras), promoting relaxation and balance. Studies suggest that sound therapy may help reduce stress and anxiety, alleviate pain, and improve overall well-being.
