About Me:

Hey, I’m Alex Jeffers, the owner and founder of Word Life Athletics! I have been holding my own personal practice of yoga and meditation for just over a decade. What started as personal practice has turned into a lifestyle - use of mindful movement and breathing patterns, has personally given me an intelligent way to approach my fears and anxieties. These discoveries have led me to teaching & inviting the practices of yoga, kettlebells, & mindfulness to others where I hope to fuse together who we are and what we’re capable of and inspire confidence in others.
