Integrating Yoga with Anatomy and Physiology Workshop Series by Ace Pittapan

 

Sunday 19th April 2020 - Integrating Physiology with Yoga

 

An older member of my regular yoga classes told me that she had a new knee replacement six months ago and that her GP told her yoga would be a great exercise to continue after her six session quota of NHS physiotherapy had finished. Without any further guidelines, it was clear that her GP didn’t have any idea about just how many styles of modern yoga there are available. Anyway, not wishing to disappoint the GP and especially her, I asked her to give me time for research. 

 

Integrating Physiology with Yoga will use an exploration of case studies with discussion on how yoga can be integrated with physiology. The session will be taught by Ace Pittapan and Sonia Perez Baeza. Case studies cover yoga therapy for post-treatment on weakened shoulders, new hips, new knees, plantar fasciitis, etc.
