Why have we given up on burning at the stake? Is war more civilized and humane? Using the stake at least you get to pick the victims.

Thousands will die here, and no one knows who they will be. Is this more sophisticated and sensible than the stake? In those days they'd select those who, as they say "deserved to die." Whether that is ever true, today we bombard those who definitely do not deserve it.

SCOLIOSIS and OSTEOPOROSIS

Coming soon to a screen near you

Friday, February 21st 6:00 - 8:00 PM (ET)

Ninety percent of scoliosis begins in adolescent girls.Typically curves below 25 degrees are not treated. Parents and young patients are relegated to the impotent position of "watch and wait." Between 25 degrees and 45 degrees braces are sometimes effective. Surgeons are consulted after the 45 degree mark. Surgery does improve the curves, but leaves the young people with stiff and non-resilient spines for the rest of their lives.

Yoga offers a way to reduce curves of any size, and leaves the spine stronger and more supple than it was before.

In this course you'll learn the four basic types of scoliosis and the yoga poses that help straighten them.

The course is an introduction to our method that has already helped hundreds of adolescents and adults reduce or remove their curves entirely. We have published it a number of times

HERE is our most recent publication.

The on-demand osteoporosis course reviews the 12 oses that have been demonstrated to build bone mineral density in those with osteoporosis and those without it.

YOGA FOR OSTEOPOROSIS

WEEKEND WORKSHOP

IN PERSON

Approximately 80% of the people using our method succeed in reversing bone loss or building bone and so avoid it. We now have over 250,000 hour of people doing this yoga, and no known fractures, herniated discs, cruciate ligament tears, or serious injuries of any kind. Although we've been teaching it online every week for some years now, and being as 'interactive' as possible , there's nothing like the real thing to raise your motivation, experience the elan of working with peers, and perfect the poses.

This is our only in-person osteoporosis training planned for 2025.
