Special Dossier Topic: Yoga and Sport - Mental Strength and Physical Balance
Yoga and sport is a topic with many facets: Yoga as mental preparation and physical regeneration for athletes, for the therapy of sports injuries or as a supplement to a purely body-oriented sporting activity and much more awaits you in our summer dossier.
