Special Class: Yoga for Osteoporosis and Scoliosis

Having scoliosis AND osteopenia or osteoporosis at a certain age of our lives, is not uncommon.  Our spines are already rotating and the vertebra are tilted creating the lateral curves.  When that happens there seems to be a greater possibility of having osteoporosis.

This class will be an adaptation of Dr. Fishman’s Series 1 Yoga Poses for Osteoporosis but with revisions for those of us with scoliosis.  I’ll be substituting a few poses that may be contraindicated for severe scoliosis, and will show you how some poses (like Triangle) should be done differently on your convex side versus the concave side.  And when we do the twists, we will will only be de-rotating our ribs/hips.  Learn how to do “Yoga for Osteo” poses with better awareness of your extra curvy spines!

Hope you will join me for this online Zoom class by sending an email to Karen@YogaTherapyWithKaren.com.  The class costs $10 unless you are one of my regular monthly class attendees, and then it is free.  Note:  The class will be videoed, so if you can’t make the class in-person, let me know and I can send you the link later.
