This all-levels workshop covers the benefits and risks of yoga for bone building. It is appropriate for all ages, but particularly for individuals aged 40 and older. Learn how to perform yoga postures for maximum bone safety, which poses are most effective for building bone and preventing fracture, and postures to avoid if you are at high fracture risk. Class will primarily consist of lecture materials, but please dress to move freely, as we make practice using bone-safe form in a few select postures.
We will offer this workshop twice:
✓ Wednesday, March 4th @2-4 pm
✓ Sunday, April 19th @1-3 pm
Cost: $35 per workshop
