Helping the Bendy Yogi: The Challenges of Hypermobility and Ways to Promote Stability and Strength in Your Yoga Classes

  • Studio 108 6487 Brecksville Road Independence, OH, 44131 United States (map)

The definition of a hypermobile body is one with an excessive range of motion in four or more joints.

Current research states that this includes 20 percent of the population.

In yoga, we’ve often fetishized the bendy body in classes and social media posts but the damage to tissues is real.

In this workshop, we’ll explore the anatomy of hypermobility and provide tools for teachers to assist students to develop their sensory intuition as well as strength to promote wellbeing instead of pain in our yoga practice.

This workshop offers 3 Continuing Education credits with Yoga Alliance.
