Increase your pitch velocity.
We’ve added 3 new videos to YAX Online for pitchers! They are all yoga recovery videos that focus on increasing pitch velocity, preparing the body to apply linear force, and cultivating healthy shoulders and a strong core.
Maintaining a consistent yoga recovery practice will help keep baseball and softball athletes healthy and performing optimally while dealing with the heavy demands of pitching.

Yoga for optimal performance
Most athletes have some sort of limitation when it comes to mobility or range of motion. When range of motion is hindered, athletes are not playing at the optimal level.
Yoga increases flexibility and mobility – which increases performance and reduces potential injury, plain and simple. It also increases body awareness, self-control, and focus. It teaches athletes how to be mindful and intentional with movement on and off the field.
As athletes, our goal is to be the best. Just like you practice your sport, you should also practice yoga in order to perform your best during a game.
More baseball videos coming soon
Stay tuned for more videos focusing on the needs of other positions, such as catchers, infielders, and outfielders!
