This retreat offers a unique focus of bringing together those with scoliosis to work therapeutically to help realign your spine and reset your nervous system. The yoga practice will include specific instructions for each pose for the various scoliotic curvatures.


You'll learn about basic anatomy and the scoliotic curvature patterns of the spine.


Discover the role yoga can play in creating awareness, relieving pain, and restoring a sense of balance to the body.


Having a few days to practice together will allow for greater continuity to receive the modifications and adjustments learned in the yoga practice for scoliosis. The tranquil setting will allow for deeper relaxation along with nourishing food and space to simply relax, unplug, and walk around in nature.


The 2020 Yoga for Scoliosis Retreat with Alix Northup is an informative, therapeutic, and empowering experience of realignment and restoration in a peaceful setting.


This retreat is open to all levels and physical limitations.


Practices include standing poses, sitting, and movements on the floor. Various props will be used and personalized modifications will be provided.
