A 3-part live training for clearer, more confident teaching.
Osteoporosis, arthritis and low back pain, understood through science and applied to everyday yoga.
Sept 17th to Oct 1st 2026.
A focused 3-part series designed to give you practical tools you can use immediately, and a clear foundation for deeper study.
Why this series matters:
As yoga teachers, we regularly work with students navigating osteoporosis, arthritis, and persistent low back pain.
These are not niche concerns. They are part of everyday teaching.
Yet the guidance around them is often conflicting, oversimplified, or outdated. Is yoga safe for someone with osteoporosis? Can it help? What should we avoid? What actually matters?
This live online series is designed to bring clarity, grounded in science and delivered with practical relevance.
What you’ll gain:
Across three live online sessions, each focused on a common and often misunderstood condition, you’ll develop a clearer, more confident approach to supporting students in your classes.
Each session explores a key area:
Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Chronic low back pain
You’ll gain:
A clear, evidence-based understanding of each condition, including how it develops and is typically managed
Up-to-date physical activity guidelines, and how yoga can be adapted to support students safely and effectively
Insight into common myths and misconceptions, helping you move beyond outdated or oversimplified teaching narratives
Greater confidence interpreting research, so you can make more informed decisions in your classes
Practical teaching strategies and adaptations, including modifications, use of props, sequencing ideas, and more precise cueing language
Ample time for Q&A in every session, so you can explore nuance and apply the material directly to your own teaching
You’ll also receive a concise Teaching Toolkit, designed to support your learning and give you practical resources to return to after the series.
Teaching toolkit (included):
A concise, downloadable resource designed to support your learning and teaching, including:
PDF slides from each session for easy reference
Key concepts and takeaways, distilled into clear, usable points
Selected practical strategies and cueing ideas you can apply in your classes
A curated reference list from each session for further reading

Testimonial:
“This course is great. As a yoga teacher, who enjoys teaching from an anatomical perspective, I have included so much of what I have learnt into my classes. This had led to a lot of students asking me about their injuries and conditions and I have had more knowledge to give them an answer. It is completely empowering to understand about the body and how it works and this course has changed the way I teach yoga.”
