SUMMARY:Yoga for Hypermobility & EDS
DESCRIPTION:Building Stability and Body Awareness\nThis class is designed for people with hypermobile bodies\, including those living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) or hypermobility spectrum disorders. \nWe’ll explore slow\, controlled yoga movements that build joint stability\, strength\, and body awareness. Practices emphasize working within supportive ranges of motion\, improving proprioception\, and developing muscular support around joints. \nClasses are primarily movement-based yoga practice\, with brief guidance to help students understand how to move safely and effectively in hypermobile bodies. \nStudents are welcome to attend the full 6-week series or join individual classes as drop-ins. \nNo prior yoga experience is required. \n\nSeries Focus\nWeek 1: Understanding Hypermobility in Movement\nLearning how to work within supportive ranges of motion. We explore neutral joint alignment\, micro-bends\, and the difference between mobility and stability through slow\, simple yoga poses. \nWeek 2: Proprioception & Body Awareness\nPractices that improve awareness of joint position and movement. We use slow transitions\, small-range movements\, and props such as blocks or the wall to support body awareness. \nWeek 3: Joint Stability & Co-Contraction\nDeveloping muscular support around joints through gentle strengthening and co-contraction. The practice includes low-load strength work and isometric holds that stabilize shoulders and hips. \nWeek 4: Moving with Control\nLearning to move with precision rather than momentum. We explore slow transitions\, coordination patterns\, and controlled flowing movements. \nWeek 5: Nervous System Regulation\nPractices that support recovery and reduce tension in the body. This class includes breathwork\, restorative postures\, and pacing strategies to support nervous system balance. \nWeek 6: Integration & Personal Practice\nBringing the elements together into a sustainable yoga practice. Students learn how to modify yoga safely and apply the tools from the series in everyday movement. \n\nMark Your Calendar\nDates: Saturdays – \n\nApril 11\nApril 25\nMay 9\nMay 23\nJune 6\nJune 20\n\nTime: 6:00 -7:15PM \nCost: $39 per session \nExtras: Chairs and props provided \n\nMeet Zsuzsanna\nI’ve been practicing yoga for over 18 years and teach with a focus on presence and curiosity. My classes support strength\, mobility\, and body awareness\, with space for students to explore what works best for their own bodies. I completed my foundational training with Suniti Dernovsek at the People’s Yoga and continued with Sarahjoy Marsh through a 300-hour advanced training and an 800-hour yoga therapy program that integrates yoga\, neuroscience and psychology. I encourage students to practice in ways that feel sustainable\, accessible and aligned with their own experience. In addition to group classes\, I offer one-on-one yoga therapy and make small-batch chocolate.
