As someone passionate about bone health, I’m dedicated to helping my clients maintain and improve their bone strength through yoga therapy. In this class, I share Dr. Loren Fishman's Method for Osteoporosis (1st series), a sequence designed to enhance bone mineral density with targeted yoga postures. These poses are backed by research and have been shown to improve bone quality over time safely. Modifications are included to ensure everyone can practice safely and comfortably.
