Arthritis affects over

1 in 4 adults

in the U.S.

—and that number is growing.

It doesn’t just impact seniors. It affects young adults, athletes, and even your most dedicated students. Many of them aren’t speaking up about their pain. But it’s silently influencing how they show up on the mat.

As a yoga teacher, you have the power to help—or unintentionally harm—this hidden population.

This free workshop is your invitation to learn how to teach yoga that’s inclusive, empowering, and safe for those living with arthritis and chronic pain.
