Our Story: How Two Football Coaches Discovered the Power of Yoga and Relaxation
It all started on a football pitch.
My friend and I were coaching a girls’ football team — a group of passionate, determined 13-14 year olds, always ready to give it their all at every practice and every game. But we quickly ran into a recurring issue: injuries. Sprains, muscle pain, overexertion… And on top of that, they seemed to have a hard time recovering. Their energy levels were inconsistent, and their focus would sometimes drop. As coaches, it was frustrating to watch. They had the motivation, but their bodies couldn’t always keep up.
That’s when the idea hit us.
At first, it was just an experiment. We thought:
"What if we added one yoga session a week?"
Nothing crazy. Just an hour on Fridays to loosen up the body, release the mental tension from the week and improve recovery. Honestly, we didn’t expect it to make such a huge difference.
But it was a real game-changer.
Very quickly, we started seeing results. Fewer injuries. More flexibility. Better focus on the field. Even the team spirit improved. The girls felt better physically, and mentally lighter. Some of them even started practicing at home, so we put together simple relaxation routines they could follow on their own. Slowly but surely, it became a ritual — something they actually looked forward to, almost as much as the games themselves.
And for us, as coaches, the impact was real too. We started practicing alongside them. Then, we added stretching and yoga to our own weekly routines. And that’s when something clicked.
We realized this wasn’t just a side activity. It was a whole philosophy — a balance between body and mind that had been missing from our lives as athletes and coaches.
That’s when we decided to take things further.
We thought: “Why keep this to ourselves? Why not share it with others?” And that’s how our Shopify store dedicated to yoga and relaxation was born.
This isn’t just an e-commerce site. It’s an extension of a real story — a journey that began on a football pitch, led by two passionate coaches, and inspired by an incredible group of young girls. On our site, we offer products we’ve tested, we believe in, and that helped transform the way we approach health, sports, and overall well-being.
Today, we’re still coaching. We still practice yoga several times a week. And most importantly, we continue to share what changed our lives.
Because sometimes, it’s the injuries that lead us to healing.
And we just followed the path.
