YOGA THERAPY FOR BETTER BONES: Bone Strengthening, Osteoporosis, Osteopenia And Prevention 5-Week Series Weekly On Sundays, July 13 - August 17, presented by Certified Yoga Therapist Tracy Flynn (C-IAYT) at UpDog Yoga Rochester.
As we age our bones naturally lose density, and over 44 million Americans have low bone mass. This can put us at greater risk of fractures, some we can recover from and some that can be much more serious. Whether you have osteoporosis, osteopenia or just want to keep your bones strong, there is an approach to practicing Yoga that has been shown to safely build bone mass by Loren Fishman, MD who has been studying Yoga and bone strength for 20 years.
In this workshop we will learn some facts about bone health, the poses used in this research, and the methods for optimizing them for increasing bone density. We will learn the three levels of practice for each pose and make sure each person is approaching the practice to their best advantage. To this end, class size will be limited.
Classes meet weekly on Sundays 12:30-1:30PM for 5 weeks: 7/13, 7/20, 8/3, 8/10, 8/17 (note: no class on 7/27).
Tracy holds the highest certifications as a Yoga instructor and Internationally Certified Yoga Therapist (ERYT 500, C-IAYT). In addition to practicing individual Yoga Therapy at UpDog, she was on staff at the Institute of Neuromuscular Medicine for 3 years.
Cost: $125 per person (includes all 5 weeks, pre-registration required)
