Dana Santas is a yoga/movement expert for CNN and CNN Health, and the creator of Radius Yoga Conditioning which helps athletes move, breathe and focus better to enhance performance and decrease injury.

Nicknamed the “Mobility Maker,” over the last ten+ years, Dana’s worked with more than 35 teams and hundreds of athletes. She's the Radius Yoga trainer for many teams in MLB, NHL, NFL and the NBA, including the Philadelphia Phillies, Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays, Orlando Magic and Tampa Bay Lightning; she’s also a private yoga trainer for dozens of individual professional and Olympic athletes, including PGA, LPGA and WTA pros.

We talk a lot about the breath, how the diaphragm is the king of the core, functional mobility, the prevalence of conjecture in yoga education, and a fresh take on #YogaEveryDamnDay.
