Yoga For Scoliosis

Elise Miller presents her internationally acclaimed workshop on working with scoliosis at The Yoga Place, Jan 22-24, 2021. This workshop will be presented online via Zoom.

• Fri 4:30-7:30pm
• Sat 9:00-11:30am, 1:30-4:00pm
• Sun 9:00-11:30am

This workshop is designed to present information and experience in the ways that Iyengar Yoga can be used to meet the challenges of scoliosis. We will include an anatomical background on scoliosis, identify each participant’s scoliosis, and discuss cause and effect as well as psychological consequences of scoliosis. Participants will learn optimal yoga postures for scoliosis as well as how to adapt specific yoga postures to their scoliosis. By combining the yoga postures with breathing awareness, one can develop more structural alignment of the body and become more symmetrical and balanced. Through yoga, one can find the balance point that allows the scoliosis curve to coexist with gravity and activates the body’s natural plumb line. Adjustments and props will be used to assist participants to work with their individual scoliosis.

This workshop is appropriate for anyone with scoliosis whether he/she is currently a yoga student or not. Teachers are also urged to attend to gain knowledge and be more skillful when assisting their students with scoliosis. Price: $185, $20 off for early bird registration!
