FireFlex Yoga is designed to improve first responders’ overall health and fitness. Through a focus on proper movement, FireFlex Yoga reduces injuries related to strain and sprain and speeds recovery time for injured police and fire personnel.
FireFlex Yoga includes four components: the Functional Movement Screen (FMSTM), customized yoga classes, training and postures, deep breathing exercises and relaxation techniques. Classes take place on-site and can easily be modified to accommodate individual and department needs. FireFlex Yoga was designed to be a stand-alone program, and it can also augment existing wellness programs.
The efficacy of the FireFlex Yoga can be measured and is based on pre and post Functional Movement Screen scores and stress assessments with classes targeted to the precise areas identified on both assessments.
