Diane is living proof of the effects of yoga on increasing her bone strength, bone quality and her balance. Diagnosed with osteoporosis in her spine and osteopenia in her hips, after just 2 years of committed yoga she increased her bone mineral density back to normal levels in her hips and osteopenia level in her spine, without the use of medications. She is a certified yoga teacher for the Dr. Fishman Method of Yoga for Osteoporosis.

In these weekly LIVE streaming classes Diane Thompson will guide you through a variety of 12 poses from the 36 bone building postures designated by Dr. Fishman. A twice weekly practice at home will truly make a difference in your quality of life. These classes are based on the work of the esteemed Dr. Loren Fishman. His work is founded on a 10-year study and has been proven to improve bone mineral density and bone quality, reverse osteoporosis and osteopenia, and prevent future density loss and bring you peace of mind.

Yoga generally has been shown to improve balance, posture, strength, range of motion and coordination, and lower your anxiety—all factors that further reduce your risk of fracture. Yoga offers a side-effect free alternative that can be done for as long as you like.

Come and reunite online and practice what you have learned from your attendance in my classes and workshops, or be just curious and hone a home practice.

“It’s not about muscling through pain to achieve a goal, but about smart movement of your body to become stronger and kinder to yourself.”
