With Robin Rothenberg's expert guidance, you will learn the importance of breathing, sequencing, and adaptation as key elements in addressing therapeutic issues.
The daily workshop format will include developmental and therapeutic practices, teaching practicum, and case studies to provide you with an abundance of skills to work confidently with chronic lower back pain.

Testimonials:
"I want to thank you so very much for the Lower Back Intensive. I came into the intensive, with all sorts of problems with my hips, lower back & sciatica. Under your tutelage I experienced great relief in all those problem areas. Actually they weren't problems, but rather misunderstandings of how my body works, responds and heals. I feel much more confident with the information I've gleaned from your course and am looking forward to teaching others what I have learned." -Shirley
The experience of being a student of yours last week was truly special. The combination of yoga philosophy, chanting, dharma talks, yoga therapy teachings in the viniyoga method,and your feminine energy as you presented yoga has left me very filled in the heart space! - Beth
Back pain is complex. There is no "one-size-fits-all" treatment. That is why Robin Rothenberg's Essential Low Back Program training is essential for any therapist who treats back pain. She provides in-depth analysis of the sources of back pain with appropriate contraindications and, more importantly, proven strategies that work. Even after eight years of treating back pain, I gained many insights from her training program. I recommend it highly." - Anita Boser, LMP, CHP, Hellerwork Structural Integration, Yoga Teacher, and author of Undulation Exercises and Relieve Stiffness and Feel Young Again with Undulation
