Program Description
Why and how yoga is beneficial for people with menopause: Continuing Education Workshop for IYI Teachers
**This workshop is for certified Integral Yoga Teachers only**
Menopause is one point in a continuum of life stages for women and most women experience this transition between the ages of 45-55 as a natural part of ageing. Given that in 2022 the global percentage of all adults who practised yoga was 16.9%, with women more than twice as likely as men to practise, these women are in your classes!
Two key physiological insights (relevant to your teaching) now known about this population of women are the changes that occur with lowering oestrogen levels on vascular (arterial) stiffness and on the thickness of fascia.
How are you addressing or considering their specific needs in your teaching?
Join this session to learn more about this latest research and how to consider these students in your classes/Studio.
Please note – As a Yoga Therapist my therapeutic approach encompasses the ‘whole’ person not their condition(s) or label. Therefore this session is not a prescription of techniques, practices, poses. It offers a deeper understanding of some physiological changes that occur for most (but not all) women at this stage of life. From this knowledge we can more effectively meet women at this life stage and offer more tailored practices whilst wholistically supporting them through all aspects of their being.
