The Yoga Shala

'The Yoga has really helped to get rid of my back pain and freed up my movement. Squats are much easier and my strength has improved as a result. I really enjoyed it in the preseason 3 years ago so I went to regular classes each week to keep it going and have kept going since then.’

John Muldoon, Ireland A captain and Connacht Rugby Captain.

The Yoga Shala (Galway) was created by the people of Galway and by Laragh & David Cunningham, certified Yoga Alliance teachers.

Official Yoga teachers of Connacht Rugby and Galway United Football Club.

We offer Yoga Instruction for Total beginners to advanced practitioners, athletes, sports people and Mums to be.

While our style of yoga is strong and athletic our classes and non competitive and aim to synchronise breath and movement, to gain total control of the body.

You don't need flexibility or strength to begin classes. All you need is yourself, a Yoga mat and the willingness to make an effort! With that effort comes physical and mental strength and control , concentration and deep relaxation.

What they say:

‘Without a doubt the team has benefitted from taking classes at the Yoga shala. We have noticed a significant change in the range of movement in Hips and Hamstrings.’

Gavin Malouf, Head Physiotherapist, Connacht Rugby.

'With all I the running I do in training and games my hamstrings and hips can get tight. The work I’ve done with Laragh and Dave has helped free them out and given me energy to push on with my training. The breathing techniques we have worked on are really good for clearing the mind and focusing.’
Alan kerins , Galway Hurler and all Ireland winning Footballer

'Horizon have been great and sent me to all the right people. I’ve had some problems with arthritis in my lower back after my football career, So the guys at Horizon set me up with a yoga instructor and this has made an unbelievable difference.

Extract from the Irish Times on Sunderland Soccer star turned professional golfer Stephen Grant.

Yoga is my other new craze for relaxing. ‘Yoga Dave’ Cunningham helps me out with that and I’ve started back in his classes since Christmas. It’s good for the muscles and the likes of Michael Swift and John Muldoon have been doing it for a good while now and get a lot out of it. I did a bit early season and it was great but with the hectic schedule of games I didn’t keep it up. Now that I’m back in it, I’m determined to do it to the end of the season.

It’s another great way to relax and recover after games and it passes the time on the lazy days off and helps to keep me calm. It’s funny being in a class without the lads, you want to have the craic but you realize that everyone around is serious so you have to keep your mouth shut.

Dave is a serious instructor, it’s amazing watching him do some seemingly horrible things to his body. He can hold himself up with both arms and his feet bent up in the air over his head no problem. Mad stuff. I nearly took half the class out trying to replicate the move.

Johnny ('concrete') o' Connor, Ireland and Connacht Rugby.
