World Renowned Sharpshooter Combines Target Practice with Yoga

Kirsten-Joy-Weiss

Amassing over 3.5 million views on her YouTube Channel, Kirsten Joy Weiss takes her viewers through a variety of shooting situations with a variety of weapons. Getting a later start than most in the sport of shooting, Kirsten came from a family who appreciated guns and that quickly became apparent as her shooting career jolted.

In 2012 alone, Kirsten was honoured with the following awards:

  • Women’s National Champion Gold Medal – NRA National Smallbore Championships
  • NRA National Smallbore Championships – Silver Medal Overall
  • Olympic Short-List
  • Top Performing US Athlete – Munich World Cup
  • S. Olympic Trials – 8th place overall

Her newest video, released on Tuesday shows the professional shooter getting in some target practice using a vintage German pistol from World War II. The fact that she is performing a ‘standing bow’ yoga pose as she fires a round into a miniature watermelon, is another story.

Having never performed a yoga pose myself, I can only imagine the strength, concentration and determination it took to place this shot. Well played, Kirsten. Well. Played.
