IDY-LiFE™ reduces stress, minimizes chronic pain, assists in the recovery from injury, alleviates the symptoms of disease, and facilitates healthy lifestyle choices.
IDY-LiFE™ blends functional movement, cardiovascular conditioning, and Integrative Dynamic Yoga-IDY™ to increase strength, stability, stamina, endurance, balance, flexibility, and full range of motion.

IDY-LiFE™ establishes optimal health, fitness, and personal well-being. Awareness is critical and knowledge is the key to a healthy lifestyle and lifelong practice of living well.

IDY-LiFE: Lifestyle and Fitness Education
1. Foundation: Weeks 1-2, Sessions 1-6
During the Foundation phase, focus is placed on proper alignment principles during exercise with particular emphasis placed on correct form, movement, and posture. We start the program with simple weight exercise routines. The yoga sessions focus on breathing techniques and posture alignment principles. During these sessions we begin the discussion of proper nutrition and examine our dietary and eating habits. We also discuss mind/body awareness and meditation practices to minimize stress and cultivate healthy lifestyle choices. |
2. Function: Weeks 3-4, Sessions 7-12
The Function phase of IDY-LiFE™ expands the resistance and strength training routines and cardiovascular conditioning activities. During these sessions we alternate our focus between the lower body and upper body, and finish each session with a full-spectrum beginning level yoga practice. We also begin to apply alignment principles and awareness practices to daily living activities and lifestyle choices. During these weeks we begin to alter our dietary and eating habits, creating an 8-week menu plan that is personalized to your food preferences. |
3. Conditioning: Weeks 5-6, Sessions 13-18
Now that we have established a solid foundation for the program, we take it up a notch and combine our lower and upper body strength and resistance training routines to further enhance muscular function and conditioning. During the Conditioning phase we increase the weight and vary our cardiovascular activities and yoga routine to build strength, stability, endurance, flexibility, and full range of motion. |
4. Transformation: Weeks 7-8, Sessions 19-24
Halfway through the program we will review your progress and reassess your goals. At this point you will probably have noticed physical changes to your body in addition to mental and emotional changes. During the Transformation phase we alter the routine so that your workout doesn't plateau. At this point, your life may be more balanced; however, we want your fitness routine to vary. Life needs balance, but the body needs change. |
5 . Transition: Weeks 9-10, Sessions 25-30
The Foundation, Function, Conditioning, and Transformation phases introduced the various resistance and strength training routines, cardiovascular conditioning activities, and yoga principles that you will continue to use after you finish the IDY-LiFE™ program. The Integration phase reviews the skills and tools acquired during the previous weeks to ensure a complete understanding for correct application and implementation.
|
6. Integration: Weeks 11-12, Sessions 31-36
During the final six sessions we design a personalized IDY-LiFE™ program for you to implement on your own. With the knowledge acquired, you will feel confident conducting your own resistance and strength training and cardiovascular program and continuing your yoga practice. We also discuss changes to your diet and how to alter your menu and calorie intake based on your weekly activities. The Integration phase solidifies the fusion of knowledge and awareness; ensuring long lasting lifestyle changes for a lifetime of health, fitness, and personal well-being. |
