About the course

In this course, we will explore weight-bearing poses to help build confidence and balance, tone our muscles, and maintain good bone density. We will be using wall support as a way of facilitating this exploration.

Additionally, we will try to see how modifying poses (like inversion and balancing asanas) can help us build strength and improve coordination without experiencing excess strain.
