According to the World Health Organization, back pain is the “leading cause of disability worldwide.” That’s the bad news. However, here’s the very good news: it’s a condition that can be treated through rehabilitation in many forms and modalities, including prescriptive yoga—YAY!!
Whether you are a teacher or a student, a seasoned practitioner or new to yoga, this workshop will offer accessible movement recommendations and reinforce tips and tools to take home to incorporate into your daily patterns and practices to manage spinal pain, or attempt to avoid it entirely.
Together, we will explore foundational spinal health from the ground up to better understand its power and pitfalls, then learn to move our bodies strategically and intelligently— blending traditional yoga asana, breath, and meditation techniques with PT and functional movement exercises. We will also offer a brief presentation of the spine’s anatomy and address specific conditions such as sciatica, disc herniation, scoliosis, stenosis, spondylosis, and muscle spasms, focusing on how to continue a meaningful and whole-body yoga practice to support your spine.
A LITTLE ABOUT MY PERSPECTIVE ON BACK CARE - PERSONAL + PROFESSIONAL
Leslee now manages - and directly teaches from - her extensive spine diagnoses. Decades of physical exertion as an elite and professional athlete, combined with age and a little genetics, culminated to this new era in her physical journey. As a full-time yoga teacher of classes, workshops, and teacher trainings for over 15 years, she recently staved off back surgery and is proudly - most days - symptom free. She lives from a careful protocol of following clinical advice, reading research, and using her own anecdotal path to back care to work closely with athletes and all movers to manage or avoid their own debilitating back stories.
