You don't need to be flexible, know the poses, or get in shape before you start yoga. 

You just need the right place to begin... with clear guidance, a slower pace, and yoga that meets you where you are today. 

➡️ "I want to try yoga, but I'm worried I'll do something wrong or hurt myself."

➡️ "I've tried yoga before, but I couldn't keep up...and left felt completely defeated."

➡️ "My body doesn't move the way it used to. What if I can't do the poses?"

➡️ “It's been years since I've exercised. I'm worried yoga will be too hard for me.”

➡️ “I know I need to work on my strength, balance, and mobility... I just don't know where to start.”

Here's what I want you to know:

You are not too old, too stiff, or too out of shape to begin.

Yoga isn't something you have to be "good at" before you start. You just need to learn in a way that makes sense for your body, your starting point, and this stage of life.

And that's exactly what we're going to do in Lifelong Yoga Foundations. 

Because the right yoga practice shouldn't make you feel like you're failing at yoga. It should help you feel more capable in your body.

Whether you're brand new to yoga or coming back after years away, we'll start with the basics, move at a slower pace, and build from there... so you can learn with confidence instead of constantly wondering whether you're doing it "right."

The way you move today helps shape how you'll move in the years ahead.

That's why I don't teach yoga poses simply for the sake of doing yoga poses. Every movement we practice has a purpose beyond the mat, helping you build the movement skills that keep you active, capable, and confident in your body as you age.

The 5 Pillars of Movement Longevity are the foundation of everything I teach in Lifelong Yoga, and the framework we'll use throughout your month in Foundations.

Together, these 5 pillars create a well-rounded yoga practice designed around what your body needs to keep moving well, not just today, but for years to come.

Monday through Friday, each day focuses on one of the 5 Pillars of Movement Longevity: mobility, strength, balance, posture, and flexibility. Each week brings brand-new practices that build on what you've already learned.

The weekend gives you space to experience more of what yoga has to offer. On Day 6, we'll explore practices like breathwork, relaxation, mindfulness, and meditation. Day 7 is Yogi's Choice: revisit a favorite practice or choose what your body needs that day.

Most daily practices are around 20 minutes, making it easier to fit yoga into your life and stay consistent. Short, focused practices give you time to move, breathe, and take care of your body without yoga taking over your schedule.

You won't just follow along. I'll help you understand what you're doing, why it matters, and how to adapt the practice for your body, so you're building knowledge you can carry into your yoga practice for years to come.

Before you begin

During our Prep Week (the week before the program starts on October 5th), you'll receive short Getting Started videos covering what props you'll need (and simple alternatives you may already have at home), options for sensitive knees, and how to adapt the practice for your body.

You'll also get a printable version of the 4-week program calendar so you can check the classes off as you go. ✅

You’ll get lifetime access to all 5 20-minute classes from the Yoga for Beginners Over 50 Challenge, so you can return to these beginner-friendly practices whenever you’d like.

We’ll also use these classes during Prep Week, so you can begin building your routine before the 4-week Foundations program starts on October 5.

Join Lifelong Yoga Foundations by Sunday night and you'll also receive my brand-new Floor Skills for Life Masterclass + Printable Practice Guide.

In this special class, we'll work on specific yoga poses and movements that build the strength, mobility, and movement skills that support getting down to and back up from the floor with greater ease and confidence.

You'll also receive a printable practice guide with the key poses and exercises from the class, so you can keep it by your mat and easily return to them on your own.

Your new masterclass + guide will be automatically added to your account on Monday, October 12.

M.S. in Yoga Therapy, ACE Senior Fitness Specialist

I've spent my entire career working with older adults, including years as a fitness and yoga coordinator at a senior living residence. I'm a certified yoga therapist (M.S., C-IAYT) and a senior fitness specialist, and I'm the founder of Lifelong Yoga Online.

And I'll be honest about why this matters so much to me. While working at the senior residence, I saw two futures side by side. I saw how one injury could change everything, how quickly it could take someone's independence, their confidence, their quality of life. And I saw the women who kept moving, who took care of their bodies, stay strong and steady and capable. That contrast never left me. It's why I do this work.

Because what you do with your body now matters for how you want to live later. And I believe yoga, taught with that bigger picture in mind, is the best way to keep building the strength, mobility, balance, and freedom of movement that help you keep living your life on your terms.

So many of my students come to me after wanting to try yoga for years, only to feel intimidated, overwhelmed, or defeated in a class that moved too quickly or simply wasn't designed with their body in mind.

So I created Lifelong Yoga Foundations the way I believe yoga should be taught at this stage of life: slowly and intentionally, with clear guidance, a purpose behind every movement, and your body at the center.

I'd love to guide you through it.

Here's what I want you to know about Lifelong Yoga Online: The Foundations program was originally created to be your first month inside the membership.

You'll start with a clear, step-by-step path to build your foundation. Then, when the month is over, you don't have to wonder, now what? You'll have an entire library of classes and programs designed around the same approach you've already learned: slower, intentional yoga created specifically for healthy aging.

Inside the membership, you'll find 350+ classes, a suggested monthly calendar so you're never guessing what to practice, guided programs to help you work toward specific goals, a monthly live class, and a supportive community practicing right alongside you.

Clear, step-by-step instruction for every level, with most classes just 15-30 minutes long so you can easily fit them into your day.

Take the guesswork out of what to practice each day. Simply open your calendar and press play. (This is a member favorite!)

From better balance to core strength, whatever your goal is, you can follow a structured program (so that you can move towards specific results).

We Begin October 5th!

“I have osteopenia and actually gained almost 3% bone density in my spine.”

“After 20 years of on-and-off yoga, I finally found a practice I could stick with.”

“I feel so much better now, and yoga helps me do everything easier.”

Yes! Foundations was created specifically to give you a clear, approachable place to begin.

We move at a slower pace, with clear cues and plenty of options, so you have time to learn without feeling like you’re scrambling to keep up. You don’t need to know the poses, understand yoga terminology, or have any previous yoga experience. I’ll guide you step by step from the very beginning.

You do not need to be flexible or “in shape” before you begin. That’s part of what we’re here to work on!

Throughout Foundations, I’ll encourage you to work within a comfortable range of motion and give you options to help you find what works for your body.

That said, this is not a chair-based program. You should be able to get down to and up from the floor independently, and be comfortable spending some time kneeling and on your hands and knees.

Yes. Foundations is designed with bone health in mind, and I teach with osteoporosis-safe movement principles throughout the program.

You'll learn to move with good spinal alignment, and I provide modifications when a movement may not be appropriate for someone with osteoporosis.

If you have severe osteoporosis, a history of vertebral fractures, or have been given specific movement restrictions by your healthcare provider, I recommend checking with them before beginning any new exercise program.

NOTE: If you choose to join the Lifelong Yoga membership, please keep in mind that not every class in the full membership library is designed specifically for osteoporosis. However, your membership also includes access to my Strong Bones, Safe Yoga program, where you’ll learn how to modify your yoga practice and make bone-safe choices when taking other classes.

Not necessarily! Foundational doesn't mean easy, and Foundations isn't simply a course about learning beginner yoga poses.

The program is built around the 5 Pillars of Movement Longevity: mobility, strength, balance, posture, and flexibility. It’s an opportunity to look at your yoga practice through the lens of how you want your body to move and function for years to come.

In fact, I’m encouraging my current Lifelong Yoga members, including those who have practiced with me for years, to go through Foundations with us. Whether yoga is brand new to you or already part of your life, these are foundations worth coming back to.

The Foundations classes are pre-recorded, so you can practice whenever it works best for you.

We'll begin together on October 5th and move through the program as a group, but you don't have to start that day or practice on a specific schedule. You can pause, rewind, repeat classes, and move through Foundations at a pace that works for you.

You'll watch your Foundations classes right inside the Lifelong Yoga Online website or app, so you won't need Zoom or Facebook to access the program.

Once you enroll, you'll receive simple instructions for logging in and accessing everything you need.

That's okay! We'll begin Foundations together on October 5th and move through the 4 weeks as a group, but you don't have to follow the schedule perfectly.

If you miss a day, simply pick up where you left off. There's no need to double up or try to catch up. And if starting October 5th doesn't work for you, that's okay too. You'll still have access to Foundations and can go through the program on your own schedule.

The group schedule is there to give you structure, support, and a little extra motivation, not pressure.

If you purchase Foundations on its own, you'll have lifetime access to the complete program, so you can return to the practices whenever you'd like.

If you receive Foundations as part of your Lifelong Yoga membership, you'll have access for as long as your membership remains active.

For this fall session, we begin together on October 5. Your practices will be released according to the 4-week schedule as we move through the program together. (But you can do the classes any time or day that works best for you.)

I keep it simple. You can cancel your Lifelong Yoga membership anytime, right from your account. There are no contracts or long-term commitments.

You'll continue to have access through the end of your current billing period, and you won't be charged again after that. Because Foundations is included as part of your membership, your access to Foundations will end when your membership access ends.

Foundations is just the beginning.

Over this month, you'll build the foundation for a well-rounded yoga practice designed to support the way you want to move and feel for years to come. And when the program ends, you don't have to wonder, now what?

Inside Lifelong Yoga, you can keep building on everything you've learned with a monthly class calendar (designed to be your next step after the Foundations program), guided programs, live classes, and more, all designed around the same approach to yoga for healthy aging.

Foundations gives you the place to begin. Lifelong Yoga gives you a place to keep going.
