Yoga for Back Pain in Kenya
Careful yoga for a back that has had enough of sitting
A stiff lower back is often the long bill for years of chairs, car seats and sofas: tight hips, a weak core and a spine that has forgotten how to move in every direction. Our Therapeutic Yoga track works on that pattern slowly, with a mentor who knows your history before you roll out the mat and who leaves out anything your back should not be doing.

Careful yoga for a back that has had enough of sitting
Search for back-pain yoga and you will find videos full of deep forward folds and strong twists, exactly the movements someone with a disc problem may be told to avoid. A generic video cannot ask what your doctor said. A live mentor can, and builds the session around it, choosing supported, pain-free ranges over impressive shapes.
Kenya’s Indian community traces back to the building of the Uganda Railway in the 1890s and to Gujarati and Punjabi traders who followed it, and many Kenyan Asian families have been in Nairobi and Mombasa for four or five generations. Gujarati is often still spoken at home; Sanskrit usually is not, and that is the gap parents here tend to name.

Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us who the class is for
Call or WhatsApp us and say who is joining and where they are starting from. For yoga for back pain that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to their age, body and experience.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with you for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class and batch of ours.
3. Pick a slot that fits your week
We place you in a batch scheduled for EAT, around work, family and daily routine rather than across them.
