Yoga For Healthy Joints please check back for dates
As our body ages (or moves less), joint stiffness or tightness becomes increasingly common. This can get in the way of our ability to move as we want, or do certain activities that we are used to.
However, deteriorating joint health is not a given. There are many ways to help keep the joints healthy, and yoga offers a many wonderful approaches.
In this Wellness Yoga course I will share with you what I am learning in my continuing studies about how to use yoga techniques to enhance the health of your joints and reduce stiffness and tightness.
If you have been attending my TriYoga classes, Therapeutic Yoga classes, or other styles of yoga, what you learn in this course will support your TriYoga practice and your particular needs and understanding around your joints. If you have never practiced yoga before, you too will benefit with the material that I will share.
Have you ever heard the phrase “motion is lotion?” It refers to the fact that movement is one of the best ways to manage or decrease stiffness and enhance joint health.
Movement can help increase blood circulation and synovial fluid to the joints, providing nutrients and lubrication. The right kind of movement is one of the best ways to retain mobility and flexibility as we age. And luckily, you can get rid of early-stage joint stiffness as long as you know how to work with it.
In this 7-week Wellness Yoga series we will explore the various joints in the body and how yoga can support those joints to help alleviate pain. At the end of this 7-week series, you will have a toolkit of postures, movements, and joint-health practices to support a healthy daily routine.
