Yoga Workshop

We are thrilled that Jo Zukovich will join Working 2 Walk and offer a Yoga Workshop on Monday afternoon.  In 1991 Jo began working with Matthew Sanford, a paraplegic in search of better ways to take care of his body.  Together they have pioneered the field of adaptive yoga and introduced this therapeutic practice to people with a variety of neuromuscular disabilities.  You can read more about Jo Zukovich here, and about yoga for disabilities here.

For the W2W Workshop, people can choose to do the yoga on the floor or stay in their chairs. Each person who wants to work on the floor should have at least one helper and bring a large towel.   If it is convenient for you to bring yoga mats, that would be helpful.  We will also try to provide additional mats for those who cannot bring them.

For those who will stay in their chairs, we will have folding chairs to stretch out your legs and rest your feet on.
Everyone who can should also bring a yoga belt or karate strap. There is no experience needed and the yoga will be presented such that each person can do it at their own level of comfort.

We request that you register for the Yoga Workshop and indicate whether you prefer to work on the floor or in your chair (see Registration Page).  If you have further questions, complete the form below and we will respond.
