The class focuses on yoga poses researched and shown to improve bone density in the hips and spine based on the Fishman Method for Osteoporosis. Focal points are posture, back and hip strengthening, core strengthening, balance for fall prevention, and body awareness. The class is a safe option for those with bone loss or hoping to prevent bone loss and postural changes that happen with aging. Participants walk away with improved posture, body awareness, and safe practice ideas based on research to target bone health.
