The number of Canadians aged 65 an older is rising and is the fastest growing age group in the country. Newfoundlanders are the leading way with the highest percentage in this age group making up nearly 25% of the population.
The beauty of yoga is that it is ageless. It can be practiced in one way or another throughout our more mature years. But teaching yoga to an aging population can be much different than what is popularly portrayed as yoga asana.
Offering inclusive yoga classes to older adults and seniors requires that you develop an understanding of common challenges they face. Beyond making yoga postures more accessible, it is important to foster an environment that empowers them to honour themselves as they are in this season of their life.
This training is suitable for:
-Yoga teachers
-Teachers in training
-Professionals working with and aging population
-Individuals committed to enhancing the the well being of older adults and seniors
-Individuals committed to better supporting their own personal health and understanding
