Vinay Menon - Yoga instructor in football

From the suburbs of Kerala to helping Chelsea win the Champions League, here is the story of Vinay Menon. The Blues wellness consultant and mind strategist is perhaps the most celebrated yoga trainer in the football fraternity. After completing his education in sports psychology, physical education, and yoga therapy, Menon started working at a luxury spa resort based in Rishikesh. This was where he got in touch with rich and famous people. During a visit to Dubai, fate intervened as Vinay crossed paths with Russian business tycoon and Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich. Soon, Vinay became a yoga instructor for the Abramovich family. Impressed with his skills, Roman extended an offer to join Chelsea in 2008. Since then, Menon has helped stars like Drogba, Hazard, and De Bruyne relieve stress, activate their inner energies, and bring the best out of them. Moreover, Vinay's expertise was utilised by Belgium at the FIFA World Cup 2022 to keep the players in top physical and mental condition.
