This is one of our Strength classes. The format is a Yoga warm up (specific yoga exercises shown to be beneficial for bone density), 6 strengthening exercises which we rotate through 2-3 times and we end with a guided meditation!
We do the same strengthening exercises for 2 months at a time so we can really learn them, get stronger and see improvements!
This class is on the more challenging end of the spectrum, so feel free to use a chair for support and modify as needed!
Equipment needed: Sturdy chair, yoga mat, hand towel, 2 hand weights or something around the house that is around 6-8 lbs!
