It is not surprising that the majority of yoga practitioners are women. Women acknowledge the strength and power that yoga provides for them at all stages of their lives, from teenage to the golden years. Women have continued their yoga practice into their 90s and even 100s. Recent research has found that people who regularly practise yoga are 11 years younger, physiologically, than their contemporaries who don’t. In the 21st century, the pressures on women are greater than ever, as they seek to balance the responsibilities of childcare, work and perhaps even caring for elderly or disabled relatives with their own needs. The health needs of our women are paramount if they are to live a healthy and fulfilling life, both for themselves, their families and communities. Yoga provides the relief and the health benefits that women need to cope with all these responsibilities.

This course will:

• The skills and knowledge to teach yoga asanas, pranayama, mudras and healing meditations to women with particular health issues.
• The emphasis is on yoga for women of all ages, at their particular stage of life and for any special health needs.
• Course participants are asked to bring their experiences to share with the group during part of the afternoon session
