MANAGING SCOLIOSIS THROUGH EXERCISE
Studies have shown that the scoliotic curve in young people may be controlled and in some cases reversed through carefully guided therapeutic exercise. Using a combination of Pilates-based yoga and dance exercises as well as muscle energy, participants learn how to correct their curve and rotation so that they can participate in pain-free activities. Thoracic and lumbar curves are measured at the beginning and end of each class, to monitor progress closely.

Cost: $15 per class
