The "Right" Pose

Level A

A 7-week series online workshop

on each first and third Tuesday

3:15 - 4:15

Next series begins November 21, 2023

Zoom Meeting

This is an introductory, live streaming online yoga therapy series. It is tailored to people with ME/CFS and/or Long Covid, and looks at yoga therapy techniques individually and how they may help relieve specific symptoms.

Note that yoga therapy is different than your average yoga class, and goes much more in depth. The "right pose" is dependent on your mental, physical and emotional condition, your stage of life, the season, your diet, and so, so much more. One pose or technique is taught per meeting, with the opportunity to learn more in depth in Level B. This workshop is appropriate both  for people familiar with yoga and those with no yoga experience.

Not able to attend the live streaming workshops?

Recorded sessions available for purchase here after each meeting.

Classes include downloadable handouts and videos.

Cost: $20 per class or $95 for series. Limited to 25 participants.
