What: YAS Yoga for Athletes with Tara Pollak

About Tara Pollak:

Tara started her interest in the fitness industry while playing Division 1 volleyball at the University of Nevada, Reno. She graduated in 1999 with a B.S. in Health Science and a Minor in Athletic Training. Following many injuries and surgeries, she discovered she owed a lot to her talented trainers and physical therapists who allowed her to continue a successful athletic career. Tara continued to study her affinity for exercise and injury and earned her Doctorate degree in Physical Therapy in 2003 from University of Southern California. At this time, she also was certified as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist.

Tara found YAS in January 2008 as an adjunct for cross training to running and weight lifting. Yoga for Athletes® and Indoor Cycling helped keep her flexible and strong as she trained for her first marathon. The balance that YAS provided to her workouts transformed her flexibility and breathing techniques, taking her athletic achievements to the next level. The reward was so powerful, she decided to become an instructor to join her love for fitness, athletics, injury, and rehab. She currently works in an outpatient orthopedic private practice where she specializes in sports injuries, including the rehab of professional athletes. Tara has married her knowledge of biomechanics and movement dysfunction with the next level of fitness to provide her clients with the ultimate, well-rounded workout experience.
