Yoga for a Healthy Back

Nearly 90% of American adults suffer from back pain, and the number continues to climb.  Why does this condition affect so many people in the industrialized world, while in some countries only 5% of adults report back pain?  Much of our back pain results from how we hold ourselves and how we move.  Join Vidya Nahar, ERYT to learn simple yoga postures and movement techniques that will help you keep your back in good shape.  Don't give up on your back.  Take back YOUR BACK by learning and practicing these preventive and healing movements. Note:  Please consult your physician to check that this class is appropriate for your health situation.  Please bring your mat and towel/yoga strap to class.
