Episode 6: Building Resilience and Awareness
With Dr. Dan Bornstein, Anusara Yoga
The first of two interviews, Dr. Dan Bornstein is an associate professor of the department of health, exercise, and sport science at the Citadel, the military college of South Carolina, and the director of the Center of Performance, Readiness, Resiliency and Recovery (CPR3). He leads one of the only graduate degrees in the nation designed to meet the growing demand for exercise science specifically designed to work with military personnel and first responders – those considered tactical athletes by occupation. In this conversation, Dan shares how a significant back injury in his youth ultimately led him to yoga and his interest in musculoskeletal health and physical fitness while also shaping his commitment to public service and giving back.
