Stand Tall, Feel Better:

Yoga for Posture

Improve your posture, reduce daily aches and pains, and regain your confidence in movement—all in a safe, supportive small-group setting designed for adults 60+.

🌿 Why Posture-Focused Yoga?

Most people don’t realize how much their posture affects their everyday comfort. Whether it’s tension in the neck and shoulders or feeling off-balance when walking, it often traces back to the way we hold ourselves.

In this course, you’ll experience:

Better Posture & Spinal Alignment

Gentle exercises and awareness practices to help your spine find a more natural, upright position.

Improved Balance & Stability

Strengthen your legs and core to feel more secure on your feet and reduce fall risk.

Reduced Pain and Muscle Tension

Learn how to move in ways that ease strain on your back, shoulders, and joints

MEET THE therapist

Hi, I'm Michele!

I've been a physical therapist for over 30 years, and I've spent all of those years working with seniors at various stages of fitness. I've become very familiar with the struggles and challenges that you face, and I've been motivated by your commitment to staying active and independent.

My mission is to help seniors on their wellness journey when you hit the road bumps that make you question whether you should stop or slow down. I'm here to provide support so you can keep going, whether it's a modifying how you move, or finding a completely different way of doing something.

Let me help you live your best life!
