This workshop will focus on a yoga practice that helps to strengthen bones and improve balance. It is open to yoga practitioners who are interested in prevention as well as those who already have osteopenia or osteoporosis. We will learn not only how to strengthen the muscles to support the skeletal system but also how to stretch them in a manner that nourishes the bones of the legs, arms and the spine.
Iyengar Yoga for Osteoporosis is open to all students.

Gabriella Giubilaro
Gabriella began her yoga practice in 1973 with Dona Holeman in Florence, Italy. After receiving her Doctorate in physics, Gabriella decided to dedicate her life to Iyengar Yoga. She has been studying with the Iyengars yearly since 1983 and, since 1987, teaching at her Florence studio as well as leading workshops in Italy and abroad.
Gabriella is widely known for her dynamic teaching of Iyengar Yoga, her good humor, her attention to individual needs and the clarity of her presentation. She believes in communicating the essence of the asanas through simple, but meaningful explanations that help her students discover the intelligence of their own bodies and challenges them so that they can experience their maximum potential.
