Strong Bones Yoga Six part series
Mondays, 7:15-8:45pm
September 13, 20, 27, October 4, 11, 18
A study published in Topics in Geriatric Rehabilitation in 2009 found that yoga poses build bone mineral density and concluded “Yoga appears to be an effective way to build bone mineral density after menopause.” This ongoing research is also demonstrating that yoga, properly practiced, can build and increase bone strength at any age, and can do so without the risk of arthritis that can be a downside of some forms of weight bearing exercise. Using the results from this study, we will learn a series of poses that have been shown to build bone mass. Variations will be offered for each pose to make it suitable for your current state of bone health. You will leave the series with a way to protect or rehabilitate your bones and 'side effects' such as lower anxiety, increased poise, balance and confidence, and normalized blood pressure. No previous yoga experience needed for this class.

Blueprints: Making Your Body Your Home Level I Yoga
Thursdays, September 23
- October 28, 5:30-6:45pm Please register by September 20
A 6 week Yoga series to establish a sound foundation for new practitioners, and help experienced practitioners move deeper into their practice with purpose and rich understanding of the human body. Often in our daily lives we may neglect or disregard our physical bodies by the way we live, work, and even think about ourselves. Too many people in our culture accept illness, injury, or discomfort as the norm. We define health as a lack of illness, rather than working with desire toward our true imprint of health and vitality. You surely have wondered if there is a way to live at home in your body, moving through each day with energy and ease.
Blueprints offers you an opportunity to
learn relevant practices to assist you in your journey toward
feeling at home in your body, with a peaceful, clear mind and
spirit. In this 6 week course, we will explore anatomy, breathing,
posture, and Yoga Asana, giving you the confidence to practice and
progress safely, receiving rich benefits from your efforts.
You do not need any prior experience in Yoga to join this group. A
desire to learn and explore the human body will allow you to enjoy
this workshop. Experienced practitioners may attend with a desire
for applying these universal principles to improve the quality of
their personal practice, opening to new opportunities to work with a
deeper level of awareness. Participants with medical diagnoses or
significant pain should consult with the teacher and their
doctor/physical therapist before registration.
