Back discomfort can make it harder to stay active and continue participating in the activities that matter to you. You might worry that moving more or moving the wrong way will make your symptoms worse. This five-week series is designed to help you move with greater comfort and confidence. Classes include joint-friendly yoga and mobility drills, breathing practices, relaxation, simple meditations, and brief educational topics. We'll also explore how stress and daily habits can affect how our backs feel. By the end of the series, you'll have practical, personalized strategies you can continue using at home and in everyday life. Unlike a general yoga class, participation in this small-group yoga therapy series includes a brief intake phone call before the series begins. We'll discuss your goals, any relevant health history, and any questions you may have to make sure the series is a good fit and to help me tailor appropriate adaptations and support throughout the program. Enrollment is limited to eight participants so there's plenty of opportunity for individualized guidance and adaptation. If you're looking for more individualized support, one-on-one yoga therapy sessions are also available. Movement practices will be beginner-friendly, joint-friendly, and adaptable. No previous yoga experience is necessary. A chair will be available whenever it's helpful. Some movement practices will take place on the floor, but transitions up and down will be very limited. Props will be provided, though you're welcome to bring your own if you prefer. Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily. Learn more at www.boothbay.yoga
