Healthy Aging: A Yoga Workshop for Osteoporosis & Osteopenia

  • In Person & Online Series at California Yoga Center 1776 Miramonte Avenue Mountain View, CA, 94040 United States (map)

Strength, stability, and vitality are possible at every stage of life. Bones and muscles are living, adaptable tissues that respond to the use and stress placed upon them. In this immersive 2.5 hour workshop, we’ll explore how yoga asana can strengthen and stabilize your body to enhance your confidence and reduce the risks that come with osteopenia and osteoporosis. With a blend of education, guided practice, and practical tools, you’ll learn how to support your bone health, move with more confidence, and cultivate long-term well-being.

You Will Learn

  • Ways to practice that support building a strong, resilient body 

  • Weight-bearing and resistance actions to provide optimal stimulation to the bones 

  • To identify and prioritize yoga poses that improve balance and coordination

  • Lifestyle choices  including nutrition and daily habits that contribute to bone health


In this supportive and informative workshop, Lori and Patti will share their years of personal experience of both yoga and osteoporosis. By using intention, right action, and a deeper understanding of how the body changes over time you will learn to develop an approach to daily movement that builds trust in your body. You will leave feeling more confident and optimistic about living a strong, healthy, vibrant life.


This workshop is for those living with osteoporosis or osteopenia, anyone seeking to age with strength and steadiness, and practitioners who want to learn how yoga can meaningfully support healthy aging and reduce the risks associated with osteoporosis and osteopenia. No prior Iyengar Yoga experience required.
