This 6-week series is taught progressively, and intended for students of all levels and abilities. We learn yoga poses, basic anatomy, breath work, and how deep
relaxation helps alleviate chronic low back pain and tension. No previous yoga experience is needed!

This highly effective program is based on the two largest, most definitive studies utilizing yoga therapy for the treatment of chronic lower back pain. The series offers a particularly gentle form of yoga, with a strong focus on individual adaptation and breath development. Our practice is accessible for all body types.

Using the Buteyko Breathing Methods, you will learn to calm the breath, reduce pain, and help in sleep, depression and anxiety. When the mind & nervous system calms, chronic pain can be addressed at a deeper level.
