Yoga Bou — A Seven-Week Practice Series

Softness creates space. Ease leads to strength.

Description

Yoga Bou is a quietly powerful tool, co-invented in the late 2000s by Japanese yoga teacher Michiko Minegishi and YogaWorks Japan.

Its origins are humble and heartfelt - born from a moment of care for an elderly student with limited shoulder mobility.

Using a simple stick as support, Michiko discovered that when the body is given something trustworthy to lean into, it begins to open in its own time. From this insight, the Yoga Bou emerged as a refined companion for practice, supporting mobility, alignment, balance, and strength.
