The next Osteoporosis and Yoga Workshop is Saturday, May 4th, 2024. Learn what postures to avoid and how you can modify postures to gain the same benefits and target, while being safe for your bones. Learn more on our event page.
Osteoporosis affects 24 million Americans. The most common injury related to osteoporosis is bone fracture, which is especially common in the spine and hips. Yoga practices move the spine and hips in all directions, therefore it is important to learn about and experience movements that do not load your spine so you can continue practicing yoga safely even if you experience bone loss.
There is space for the online option of our Osteoporosis and Yoga Workshop happening this Saturday.
You will gain invaluable knowledge about how osteoporosis affects your yoga practice and your movements. Even if you have taken it before, you will get a little more insight into how to safely move your body. Class size is limited to provide each student a therapeutic experience.
It is never too late to invest in healthy bones!
