Lifetime Yoga: For Seniors, Taught by Seniors

Pam and Sharon, yoga instructors

By Angeline Johnston

Richmond Beach Yoga is proud to announce the addition of the new Lifetime Yoga class designed especially for seniors. This class is unique in that it not only will cater to the senior participant but that it will also be taught by a senior instructor. The 60 minute class starts September 2 at 10:30am and will be taught by Pam Brown and Sharon Jenson. 

Pam has extensive experience in working with seniors and is a seasoned yoga practitioner and teacher. “Our class will focus on gentle yoga taught in an approachable manner for seniors. The goal is a casual, fun class paced carefully for those who attend,” says Pam.

Sharon Jenson is an RBY-trained yoga instructor, a retired oncologist, and an avid yoga practitioner as well.

Yoga’s many health benefits are widely known. Studies have shown that yoga can help reduce stress, combat fatigue, and decrease pain at any age. Having a class for seniors has been a goal of mine for a long time. We are so glad to have this class available now with instructors skilled at working with seniors.

The studio is located at 621 NW Richmond Beach Road in Shoreline. RBY has been serving yoga students of all ages from prenatal to seniors since October of 2011. Class choices include highly active vinyasa classes, hatha classes, meditation classes, and now, a senior class. Walk-ins are welcome— no need to join. Check website for more information or come by the studio 15 minutes before class.
