Hip & Low Back Therapeutic Series at The Portland Yoga Project @ The Portland Yoga Project | Portland | Maine | United States

HIP & LOW BACK THERAPEUTICS SERIES

This four week series will focus on therapeutic yoga practices to support the health of your hips, pelvis and lower back. This series is for you if:

  • You’ve graduated from physical therapy sessions, you’re post-rehab and you need to maintain strength and mobility.

  • You’ve dealt with hip and low back issues for years, and you need a regular routine to sustain strength.

These classes are slow and detailed, with plenty of opportunity for discussion and attention to individual issues. If you are post-rehab from injury or surgery, make sure you are cleared for exercise before signing up.

Mar 23 @ 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm
Moving Through Crisis Together: An Embodied Climate Action Workshop at The Portland Yoga Project @ The Portland Yoga Project | Portland | Maine | United States

WITH KATE OLSON & VICTORIA RUTLEDGE

SATURDAY | MARCH 23 | 1PM-2:30PM

$5, $10, $15, $20, $30, OR $50 DONATIONS

all proceeds matched by PYP and donated directly to Wabanaki REACH

Hosted by Kate Olson and Victoria Rutledge, we will take a journey of exploration to learn about how our current climate crisis is affecting our ecosystem here in Maine, and how that is reflected in the lived experience of our bodies. With so much fear and uncertainty surrounding the drastic changes we will witness in our lifetime, how can we use grounding and embodiment practices to build and maintain the resilience necessary to hold what is to come? To stay connected to one another and build the networks of care that will sustain us? How are the ecosystems that surround us reflected within our bodies?

This workshop will include movement, journaling, and action items that we invite you to commit to as we move forward together.

To make this accessible, we are offering a sliding scale for pricing, with proceeds donated to Wabanaki REACH, an organization whose work supports the self-determination of Wabanaki people through education, truth-telling, restorative justice, and restorative practices in Wabanaki and Maine communities.

Kate Olson, PhD, is a writer, environmental sociologist, and community organizer. Her work explores the ways people, places, and livelihoods shape each other in a changing climate. Find her on social media @livingchangeme and using the link below.

Victoria Rutledge is a Movement Guide,
Facilitator, Grief Worker, and Outreach Ambassador for Portland Yoga Project. By centering pleasure, rest, and rigorous self-study, Victoria believes that yoga can be a potent tool to dismantling harmful internalized social structures that keep us from true union.
