Yoga for Osteoporosis
My approach
I teach private lessons and classes in Yoga for Osteoporosis online, making this practice available to people in almost any location.
My approach addresses three stages of bone density:
- If you have Osteoporosis and need a modified yoga practice to safely and gradually build bone density through your own daily practice
- If you are hovering in Osteopenia and want to turn that tide to stronger bone
- If you want to steer away from fragile bones altogether by practicing preventive yoga

Yoga for Osteoporosis: my guiding lights and teachers
Yoga for Osteoporosis originates with Loren Fishman, MD. He is medical director of Manhattan Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in New York City. What a remarkable resource he is for so many! His lifelong work in medicine has always included yoga—he is a master teacher in the Iyengar tradition. Another teacher whose work has changed my life is Donna Farhi, an internationally beloved teacher based in New Zealand. She is regarded for her brilliance in adapting yoga for a wide range of conditions.
Dr. Fishman has subjected his Yoga for Osteoporosis to rigorous research that has validated his results. Dr. Fishman’s method carefully chooses what yoga poses are needed for bone health and how to do them to stimulate the bone building elements in bone tissue.
