Beginners & Age-Specific Questions
Q: Are there classes for people over 55?
Yes. Working with adults 55+ is the core focus of Eryn’s Yoga, as most of my students are 55 and over. This has been my passion and my niche for more than 20 years. Classes are designed to help you stay strong, steady, and flexible, supporting ease of movement and confidence. Each class targets key muscles, balance, and mobility to help students feel confident, comfortable and capable every day.​
Q: What are the benefits of yoga as we age?
Where do I begin! Yoga helps us stay strong, flexible, and steady at any age. It strengthens muscles that support balance, loosens stiff joints, improves posture, and enhances mobility. Practising regularly makes daily activities easier and favourite hobbies or past-times more enjoyable. It reduces the risk of falls, supports mental focus, improves sleep, and boosts overall energy. In short, yoga helps you move more comfortably, stay independent, and maintain an active, confident lifestyle.
