Practical strategies for a lifetime of vitality with international teacher and best-selling author Barrie Risman, E-RYT 500, YACEP
Everyone would like to age with as much strength and grace as possible. Now, research has confirmed what many yoga practitioners have known for a long time: yoga practice can have a remarkable impact on your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being as you grow older.
 
In this weekend workshop you’ll learn about how yoga can improve five key components of healthy aging: stress management, strength, flexibility, agility, and balance.
 
You’ll leave with effective tools to target, adapt, and customize your yoga practice to meet your individual needs and concerns, no matter what your starting point.
 
If you’re a yoga teacher, this workshop will provide you with many practices and perspectives – including postures, breathwork, philosophy, and meditation – to support your students.
