Neuropathy has many roots: chemotherapy, diabetes, Parkinson’s, pinched nerves, or just plain aging can bring it on - and leave you feeling as if your legs, feet, hands or fingers have fallen asleep. Neuropathy can make it hard to pick things up, unsafe to move around.

Certified IAYT yoga therapist Terry Roth Schaff and Qigong and Tai Chi teacher Karen Abramson would like to invite you to join them to learn ways to wake up your fingers, hands, heels and toes, and any other part of you that has fallen asleep from neuropathy. Improve your balance, posture, gait and ease in movement. This workshop will include informational introduction, about a half an hour of movement (both seated and standing), and time for Q&A.
