Workshop : Practical Solutions for Healthy Knees
Would you like to learn practical techniques to strengthen your knees?
Do you want to learn how to keep your knees healthy during your daily life and yoga practice?
Following the success of the first Yoga for Healthy Knees workshop and by popular demand, Catherine is returning to offer a practical workshop exploring approaches to working with the knees.
Knee strength is crucial to keeping our knees healthy and pain free. In this workshop we will learn practical techniques to strengthen and mobilise the knees. We will learn which yoga asanas can help strengthen our knees (and which to avoid!). We'll look at how we can teach everyone to keep their knees healthy during their practice, and how we can build strength in our own and our students knees for improved balance, improved day to day quality of life and pain-free walking and running.
Join us to look at how to support sensitive knees in class, using a range of props and modifications. Catherine will also introduce some simple strengthening and mobilisation exercises to support those working with knee injuries.
This workshop is for you if you'd like to learn:
• How to strengthen your legs to support your knees
