About the instructor
Bree Hitchcock
Registered Yoga Teacher since 2004
Born in 1980, and raised in Anchorage, AK
"I grew up playing as many sports that I could until, around age 11, I chose to focus my time and energy into my favorite sport: soccer.
With soccer came a string of State Championships (high school and league play), Olympic Developmental Programs, Regional Tournaments, and 5 years of Division 1 Colligate Women's Soccer at The University of Montana. With around 5 years of coaching experience thrown in there too, in Alaska, Montana, and Philadelphia.
While coaching in Philadelphia I pursued my love of yoga, became a certified 200 hour registered yoga teacher, and melded my two loves in ATHLETE YOGA. I taught yoga, in Philadelphia, to boys' and girls' teams ranging in age from 10-17.
I teach this style of yoga because I know how much it would have helped me as an aspiring athlete.
It's a mental break from the pressures of competitive sports, school, social life, and family. And the physical balance to sport needed, to not only align and strengthen the body for maximum performance, but also to decrease the risk of injury."
