The Importance of Mobility for Balance

In Episode #8, Jeff gives some suggestions for Avita teachers with older adults in their classes. How do we work with willing students in their 80's? How do we deal with the challenges of osteoporosis, medications, and the desire to increase bone density? With Avita Yoga, there is always a way to bring results to those who practice. Jeff spends considerable time on the importance of mobility to maintain balance. Flexibility won't help. Nor will the practice of standing on one foot. With adequate mobility, the brain and body figure it out automatically!

In this call, we celebrate a remarkable milestone shared by a student, and Jeff addresses a fascinating question about hands-on bodywork.

The episode finishes with a conversation about the Avita Yoga Teacher Training. There are questions about the practicalities of the program, time commitment, structure, and how it addresses the emotional aspect of the practice.
