Tired of moving like a much older version of yourself? Learn how yoga can heal back pain and help you stay lively and healthy.

For ten years, I had chronic back, neck and shoulder pain from scoliosis. While yoga didn’t cure my scoliosis, it healed my body and totally relieved me from pain. My healing from this pain is why I became a yoga teacher. I love sharing these solutions with others!

Even low grade pain takes a huge toll on our bodies and zaps us from having the energy to be fully present to others and comfortable in the world.

Yoga for a Healthy Back – Tuesday, January 19   7 – 8:30 pm

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to strengthen, stretch and relax the body to address back pain. It’s important to have a mix of strengthening and stretching. For instance too little core work weakens the back. Too much core work exacerbates back pain. In addition to the muscles in the upper and lower back, we’ll learn how to target some major muscle groups that can play a big role in back pain (tight glutes and hips, weak psoas, etc.)

Learn how to care for your back and walk away with some short yoga practices that you can do at home.

Please bring a yoga mat and a blanket (that will be used for support in some of our yoga poses). If you have yoga blocks, please bring them as well. All levels welcome.
