Yoga for Every Body
About this course
Yoga should meet people where they are, especially when they are recovering from injury, managing pain, rebuilding strength, or returning to movement after time away. By the end of this course, learners will understand how adaptive yoga can be used to support tissue healing, restore function, improve mobility, and build confidence through safe, personalized progressions. Guided by Yoni Kedem, RYT, this course teaches learners how to modify postures with props, adjust load and range of motion, and pace yoga practices for people who are injured, deconditioned, new to yoga, or working through chronic discomfort. Through anatomy-based instruction, practical labs, and graded assignments, learners explore the mechanics behind key poses and transitions, connecting them to goals such as reducing pain, improving circulation, rebuilding strength, and supporting return to activity. Yoga, fitness, wellness, and rehabilitation professionals will gain practical tools for adapting yoga safely, while general learners will better understand how yoga can be adjusted for different bodies and recovery needs. This course offers an accessible, functional approach to yoga for real people, real limitations, and real progress.
