COACHES
"BJ got me to my start line prepared mentally and physically for anything the race course could throw at me and taught me the importance of being present in everything that I do. I learned how to become my best whole self and that allowed me to show myself that I am capable of so much more than I ever thought possible. With the support of BJ, Jess and the Team at YogiTriathlete I was able to build friendships that will last a lifetime."
