In a very natural way and as the body changes with age, the approach to how and what we practice changes as well.
In this workshop, Diana Meltsner, certified yoga therapist will address the needs of the changing body to stay strong and mobile, to support the joints and strength needed for sustaining good balance.
How can we integrate necessary strengthening into our practice?
We will address:

• How to support joints and their decreased flexibility and stiffness due to a number of changes.
• The necessity for personalized alignment in poses and transitions.
• Why to give priority to developing and sustaining strength as we age.
• Balancing
• Strong connection to our body through body and breath awareness practices.
