Meet Team Athletes for Yoga — Sporting Director Bree Dillon

Our new hOMegirl — diving in!

By now, you've probably heard about our London expansion... One of the most exciting things about these changes is that Team Athletes for Yoga is growing! We're excited to introduce our new Sporting Director, Bree Dillon, who will be leading the Reset Revolution in Seattle. Boss mode: ON. In addition to running our stateside operations, Bree is also an Athletes for Yoga Coach — she'll help you Hit Reset in our team training, everyday athlete, and private coaching sessions.

Like many people, Bree first rolled out a yoga mat for the physical challenge, and it wasn’t long before she started to see her performance in other disciplines excel — she became stronger in the weight room, a faster runner, a more efficient swimmer, and a more agile outdoor explorer. Needless to say, she was psyched!

What does the Reset Revolution mean to you?
It means being part of a movement of athletes — people who are in hot pursuit of finding balance so that we can perform at our best in any challenge we're presented with. 

What do you do to Hit Reset?
For me, Hitting Reset means seeking rest — resting easy/fully/mindfully. I tend to move fast and go hard, so slowing down and appreciating the moment I'm in and breathing in to my full lung capacity are ways I start to personally reset. And Legs Up the Wall of course!
