Yoga Classes for Active Older Adults
— that don’t act old!
I teach classes to the rebel yoginis!
Women who’ve made it past 50, 60, 70, 80 with
zero fucks to give!
We practice Unlimited Acceptance and Self Love with permission to
follow your own rules!
Ideals of perfection and unrealistic beauty standards do not live here.
Late for class - it’s not a big deal!
Can’t do that pose - there are ALWAYS options!
Hole in your pants? Stain on your shirt? SRLSY? We are all doing our best just by breathing!
Ready for savasana - like now - then LAY DOWN. Take a nap!
victory
to health
and healing!!!
How can you actually build bone
in a yoga class?
As you challenge your muscles in different poses, your bone cells (osteoblasts) respond to perform ossificatation - the continuous and lifelong process of bone building.
Also know as Wolff's Law which states - bone remodels and adapts to the mechanical loads placed upon it, becoming stronger to resist increased stress and weaker with decreased stress.
Or, as they say, “use it or lose it.”
