as he’s done from the Beginning, Coach takes aim at the conventional fitness world’s latest notions of Warming Up and provides his Tribe with the cOMmon sense of proven wholeness. Here is Part One of his Wholistic Fitness™ Warm Up Protocol for endurance athletes which optimizes pranic, mental, and physical environments. Endurance athletes following his Warm Up Protocol will find greater power production via neuromuscular function and decrease the rate of lactate concentration while increasing the rate of lactate removal. photo of coach in northern Arizona by Ananda.
don’t be scared; be sacred! actually i called it “High Performance Yoga” for a multi-layered effect; it really means, “Divine Action Union.” you? you just get through that front door, i’ll take wonderful care of you and after your first class you’ll be like, “OMG…! What TOOK me sooo long to do this?!” trust.
Then came that Day when my Anahata Chakra opened…
Evening to be precise.
Brahmamuhurti (Yogic hour of God…sunset or sunrise) to be even more accurate. during those years i was the manager of the Center For Self Healing in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Santa Fe is a world-renown spiritual vortex which speeds up whatever Inner Work you may need to accomplish. ilg was at that time a pranic drunk; etherically gorging myself each day from the chronic smorgasbord of delectable world-class spiritual appetizers for which Fanta-Se was known. you name it? ilg was there; Rolfing, Yoga, Kundalini, Re-birthing, Astral Navigation, Zen Sessins, Tibetan energywork, Buddhist chanting, Feldenkrais, Cranio-Sacral, Past Life, Tarot, Sufi Dancing, Men’s Tribal Drumming…whatever it was? SIGN ME UP, baby!
“Coach Steve Ilg raced the first year’s event some time ago with snowshoes even though there was no snow — now that’s courage. Try it sometime. He was the cheerleader encouraging snowshoe racing at the Nordic Center, and the race gives him his credit for leading the way.” – Snowshoe Magazine
