Ep 92: Repetitive Stress Injuries in Yoga: What You Should Know


Listen Later

Not all yoga injuries happen in a single moment. Many develop slowly, over time, from repeated movements or sustained positions. These are known as repetitive stress injuries, and they are some of the most common injuries students have because of their yoga practice.

In this episode, you'll hear why repetitive stress injuries are not always known to you or the student. I'll also remind you why adding variety to your sequencing matters, and how you can adapt your classes to support students without stepping outside your scope of practice

Finally, we’ll explore how important your language is, how these injuries affect nervous system regulation, and how prop usage can help students feel safe and supported while continuing to practice in a group setting.
