“Three years ago, my company Olympia Physical Therapy and Performance () began our annual Yoga on the Court event in partnership with L.A. Sparks. Our mission is to “increase access and support in the journey to peak performance.” To us, this is holistic. Not only are we striving to extend elite physical therapy and sports medicine care to athletes of all backgrounds, but also we are aiding in the fight for equality and fandom amongst athletes who endure inequities. At the professional level, the incredible women in the WNBA have worked nonstop with significantly less resources and support in their sport. So, naturally, when the opportunity arose, our company gravitated towards doing our part to both promote community and bring more viewers to the game. Our yoga on the court event involves a yoga session done on the basketball court followed by time for brunch and networking, and front row seats to the L.A. Sparks game. For myself and the team at Olympia, it is important that we remain a part of efforts bigger than physical therapy. As a sports medicine company, we believe if the athlete does well, we do well. “
