Discover how Yoga asana (posture) can help to build and maintain strong bones. 

A 10-year study by Dr. Loren Fishman demonstrated an increase in bone mineral density and improved bone quality with regular practice of 12 Yoga poses. Yoga asana also improves your balance, posture, strength, range of motion, and coordination, greatly reducing the risk of fracture.

Yoga for Strong Bones Part 2 is a 2-day online workshop focusing on incorporating variety and challenge into your Yoga practice to help build and maintain strong bones. This series is open to anyone who has completed Yoga for Strong Healthy Bones Part 1 or its equivalent. The Part 2 workshop will include additional poses for building strong, healthy bones. These poses will add variety and challenge to your daily practice. Full instruction will be offered on how to select and sequence poses in your personal daily practice. Guidelines will be given for maintaining a balanced, safe practice that meets your individual needs and goals. The group support and practice will refresh, invigorate, and inspire your continued practice of Yoga for strong bones.

Presenter

E-RYT 500, C-IAYT Satya Greenstone

Satya Greenstone has been a student of Sri Swami Satchidananda since 1971. She has shared the teachings of Integral Yoga® in many diverse settings with students of all ages and backgrounds and combines a natural, practical, down-to-earth approach to Yoga with a gentle humor. Since 1999 she has been a primary teacher for the 200-hour and the Intermediate Integral Yoga Teacher Training programs. While serving as teacher training coordinator, she helped to develop and teach the first Gentle Yoga Teacher Training program. She has also developed and teaches training programs in Restorative Yoga, Adaptive Yoga, and Yoga and Meditation for Children. In 2005, she received certification in Therapeutic Yoga and is currently certified by the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT). She also is certified in Yoga for the Heart and Yoga for Osteoporosis.

She gently adapts the Yoga practices to individual needs and always finds a way to encourage and inspire her students who soon recognize that, for her, Yoga is an experience, not a subject for academic study. First and foremost she is a yogini, and her teaching is an extension of the experience gained from her Yoga practice. Satya exudes the joy and exemplifies the benefits that come from living the yogic lifestyle and she shares that joy and those benefits with her students.

Always thankful to her Guru Swami Satchidananda, Satya believes that he has created the perfect environment in which to practice Yoga and experience the peace of one’s true nature. It is that personal recognition of one's true Self that she tries to facilitate in every program.
