Join Katie Hay, Yoga Therapist, who works with clients 1-on-1 who are at-risk of falling or looking to build bone strength as they age. Katie empowers them to live independently, and feel steady, strong, and mobile in mind and body. She is excited to offer her proven methods in a group setting.
​
Falls are the number one cause of trauma deaths and hospital admissions for any age group, and the second leading causes of accidental or unintentional injuries and deaths worldwide (source: WHO). Weakened bones, osteoporosis, can fracture or break more easily from falls or other movements.
​
The risk of falls and weakened bones becomes much worse when you are older than 65...but it is never too early to do the work to prevent falls, and feel stable in your body!
​
In this workshop you will:
Assess your balance and risk of falling
Practice strength and mobility movements, especially beneficial for strengthening bones and preventing falls
Cultivate breathing and mindfulness practices to support balance
Connect with your systems needed to balance (sensory, vestibular, proprioceptive)
Leave with a path forward for healthy neuromuscular aging
