Description

This yoga session is for anyone who has, or has had, back pain. This is a gentle yoga practice using posture to strengthen and support your back, which is done standing, with chairs, and some on the floor. The postures can also be modified and done at home on a bed. A handout is provided to help maintain a healthy practice at home to reduce and prevent back pain. This is not suitable for those with severe, acute back pain. No yoga experience is necessary. Limited enrollment.
