Diamond Dallas Page brings life-changing DDP Yoga to the UK in September

Legendary professional wrestler Diamond Dallas Page is coming to England and Scotland this September – and he’s bringing his life-changing lifestyle program with him.

DDP Yoga has grown around the globe over the last few years, beginning when Page sought out a way to rehab multiple nagging injuries sustained in the ring, performing during wrestling’s hottest ever time period – the Monday Night Wars.

Page has helped people lose hundreds of pounds in weight, ditch walking aids they feared they’d need for the rest of their lives and improve their day-to-day lives.

And though he has brought DDPY over to these shores in the past, he cannot wait to kick off his first full-on tour of the UK in Glasgow on September 8.

“There are tens of thousands of people in the UK using DDP Yoga,” Page told Yahoo Sport UK. “I love to touch base with my people.

“I did Swindon a few years ago and a couple of Comic Cons. I can’t wait to be back. I like to meet the people and talking to absolutely anyone.

“I will greet every person who comes to my workshops and seminars. I love hearing their stories, what brought them here.”

British interest in wrestling is at a high at the moment, thanks to a hot new batch of domestic talent making waves locally to the point that many – including Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate and Tommy End – have been snapped up by the industry juggernaut WWE, where Page spent several years in the early 2000s.

Not only that, but American wrestling superstars flying across the Atlantic to host an audience of British fans has become extremely popular thanks to companies such as Hooked On Wrestling.

With DDP Yoga at the forefront of his trip, Page knows his dates will be different to any other before him. And yet, he cannot wait to shoot the breeze with the fans who still fondly recall his pivotal role in the WCW vs New World Order storylines that ruled the airwaves 20 years ago.

“The Q&A portions of my trip, I like to call ‘inspiration conversations’. It’s my opportunity to share positive messages and my stories of inspiration with other people,” Page explained.

“I live for inspiring people to do things they think they can’t. My goal is to completely eliminate the word ‘can’t’ from the equation.

“It’s easy to explain to wrestling fans – they’ve seen my backstory and have been there since chapter one – but even non-wrestling people have seen my Hall of Fame speech and from that alone, they know I don’t do sh** half-assed!
