MINDFUL MOVEMENT FOR SCOLIOSIS

6-week session, Saturdays 9:45-10:35am
First session begins October 17, 2020

This workshop integrates yoga-based postures, breath work, and mindful movements to improve the strength and stability of those with scoliosis. Serving our adolescent community, we are committed to helping teens explore and build greater self-awareness, internal power, and postural regulation. What is learned on the mat can be carried over into daily activities to live and move as our best selves.
