Please join us for a five week series on the Managment of Arthritis and Osteoporosis through the practice of Yoga. The series of classes will cover appropriate (gentle) yoga postures, breathing practices, and safe yoga sequences for your condition. The class will conclude with restorative poses and deep relaxation to rest, restore and renew.
We hope you will join us whether you are new to yoga or already practicing, and wish to learn more about yoga and its benefits for arthritis and osteoporosis.
