Description
Yoga can strengthen joints, which is crucial for preventing and managing arthritis. Yoga can also regulate the uric acid level in the body, which, in excess, contributes to arthritis. Most importantly, yoga can lead to a healthier lifestyle, enhancing resistance against arthritis and other chronic and acute conditions. This class focuses on simple postures aimed at addressing arthritis from your head to your toes. Wear loose, comfortable clothing and bring a mat/towel to session two. No experience necessary; seated, standing, and/or floor options. Limited enrollment.
