Remember when you first discovered how you would feel better and stronger after each yoga session?
When those creaky joints started moving with greater ease? When that humdrum mood lifted and you felt more vital than you had in years?
That wasn't just your imagination. Those are just examples of how yoga - when taught and practiced in the right way - can help us awaken our Aging Superpowers.
The only problem? It can be hard to find a teacher that can support us in our yoga journey, particularly as we get on the other side of 50.
You see, after that time, your body likely doesn’t fit the kind of cookie-cutter yoga instructions that most yoga teachers deliver.
Hi, I'm Eva, founder of YogaUOnline.com. And like you, I know all too well what it's like to live in an aging body . . . .
Ever wished you had a magic potion to slow the onslaught of age-related changes that shout out at you every time you look in the mirror?
You know that yoga can help make a difference. And, as more than 3,700 studies attest to, it's a BIG one.
This is why we created our Empowered Aging Circle. . .
In this program, we offer an integrated curriculum focused on how yoga can help us build our 6 Aging Superpowers.
This innovative program you will learn specific yoga practices to target the key age-related degenerative changes that otherwise slowly undermine our mobility and independence as we get older.
These changes are decades in the making. But there are many ways yoga can help slow or even reverse these changes. And the earlier you start, the better!
Once you get the tools to address these preclinical precursors to age-related decline, you can take proactive steps to maintain your vitality and independence.
This is how you can build a body that lasts. . .

Did You Know that You Can LITERALLY Add Years to Your Life?
Did you know that research suggests that adopting just eight healthy behaviors can add up to 24 years to people’s lives?
Did You Know that Only about 25% of Aging is Determined by Genetics?
Studies indicate that only around 25% of the variation in our lifespan is linked to genetics. In other words, our habits and lifestyle choices have a huge impact.
Did you know that recent research shows that lifestyle can slow the rate of cognitive decline by 46.81%?
A favorable lifestyle also helps to offset cognitive decline in people with higher genetic risk. Even changes later in life can make a difference.
But Unfortunately, You May Never Learn about This. . .
Because on average it takes 17.5 years for new research knowledge to get integrated into medical practice.
Ever wished you had an Owner's Manual to Your Body?
Well, read on, and we will show you just how you can get on top of cutting-edge research into the factors that can help slow the aging process - without spending hours and hours reading through long, dry and obscure research studies!
Learn How to Develop Your 6 Aging Superpowers!
And Build a Body that Lasts
Wonder how you'd ever get time to incorporate movement practices for all the 6 Aging Superpowers into your life?
We hear you! Even if you spent all your time going to the gym and seeing experts for different types of movement practices, you'd never have the time to cover each element individually.
Instead, experience the yoga difference! Because yoga is a holistic, multidimensional, mind-body practice, you get multiple benefits at the same time.
Aging Superpower #1
Multidimensional Strength Training that Actually Works!
Did you know muscle loss begins as early as your 30s? And that strength-building is not just about building muscle mass, but building intelligent muscles?
We go beyond basic strength training to explore the latest research on maintaining muscle mass and function. Learn precise techniques to build strength intelligently, with modifications for all ability levels.
And importantly, we go beyond rote repetitions to make it empowering, fun and rewarding.
Aging Superpower #2
Bone Health Mastery for Fall & Fracture Prevention
Did you know that most fractures are preceded by a fall?
Dive deep into the mechanics of bone strengthening and fracture prevention through specific movement patterns.
Learn cutting-edge techniques for maintaining bone density, improving balance, and creating a fall-proof foundation.
Our evidence-based approach includes specialized movements that target key areas prone to age-related bone loss.
Aging Superpower #3
Joint Health & Mobility for Lifelong Agility
Explore sophisticated techniques for maintaining joint health, fascial flexibility, and dynamic movement patterns. Learn how to create a varied "movement diet" that keeps your body adaptable and resilient, with specific attention to maintaining joint health and mobility in commonly restricted areas.
Aging Superpower #4
Regeneration & Renewal
Keeping the Body's Channels Open
You body is constantly regenerating and renewing itself. This requires a constant supply of nutrients and physiological products, as well as the removal of metabolic waste products. For these processes to remain healthy, it is essential to maintain clear pathways in the body. The body has numerous flow systems that facilitate this process. But the vast majority of them rely on movement to function! Learn specific movements and techniques to support the body's flow systems, enhance circulation, and maintain our natural cleansing mechanisms. This often-overlooked aspect of movement can have profound effects on your overall well-being.
Aging Superpower #5
Building Brain Health & Cognitive Resilience
Research now shows that movement isn't just magic for your body - it's essential for your brain and nervous system.
Studies show that regular physical activity is linked to lower rates of dementia and Alzheimer's disease.
Our program integrates cutting-edge research on the role of movement in building cognitive reserve - your brain's natural defense against age-related decline.
Aging Superpower #6
Wisdom Body:
Awakening Your
Inner Guide
While our first five Aging Superpowers focus on specific physical systems, this sixth power taps into something more subtle yet equally crucial: Your body's innate wisdom and capacity for self-awareness.
This is what yogis have long called the "wisdom body" – an intelligence that goes beyond intellectual knowledge to encompass a deep, intuitive understanding of our body's needs and signals.
This superpower brings together physical practice with the deeper wisdom traditions of yoga, helping you develop not just a stronger body, but a more refined awareness of how to care for yourself at every stage of life.

Yoga for Back Care and Spinal Mobility
You can have the strongest legs and the most dedicated exercise routine, but if your back hurts, none of it matters. Back problems are the #1 reason people over 50 stop exercising entirely. Studies show that by age 65, nearly 40% of adults have stopped participating in regular physical activity due to back pain or mobility limitations.
Without a healthy, mobile spine, the metabolic benefits of movement—the strength training, the daily activity, the physical resilience that protects your metabolism—become impossible to access.
Movement is life. Every breath you take, every step you walk, every reach and turn throughout your day depends on spinal health. But your spine does more than enable movement—it's the central communication highway of your nervous system.

The Psoas Connection:
Core Stability for Movement,
Breath & Digestion
In this workshop, we’ll explore gentle strengthening and release work to restore balance to your psoas; breath practices that support both hip flexors and digestive function; yoga poses that stimulate digestive fire and improve motility; and simple techniques to calm the nervous system and support gut health. All practices will include modifications and prop support so that bodies of all ages and stages can benefit.
We will explore a series of yoga poses, mudras, breathwork, and simple daily practices to support healthy digestion — from mindful chewing and abdominal massage to twists, belly-release work, sequencing for elimination, and practices that tone the abdominal organs. Participants will leave with both philosophical insight and concrete strategies for easing bloating, indigestion, constipation, and that familiar sense of digestive sluggishness that can arise from stress, hurried eating, or lack of movement.

Yoga for Flexibility:
Fascia, Flow, and Metabolic Efficiency
Flexibility after 50 isn’t about touching your toes—it’s about restoring the fluid, responsive connective tissue matrix that enables efficient movement, glucose disposal, and metabolic signaling throughout your entire body. This four‑week series with Lynn Crimando reveals how intelligent fascia‑focused practices can reverse the stiffness that silently undermines your metabolic health, movement capacity, and muscle‑building efforts.
Most people understand that tight muscles limit movement, but fewer realize that fascial restriction can also impair nutrient delivery and waste clearance between tissues. Your fascia—the web of connective tissue wrapping every muscle, organ, and cell—should behave like a hydrated, dynamic matrix for cellular communication and resource exchange. After 50, this matrix can become dehydrated, denser, and less pliable, creating what researchers describe as fascial adhesions and ECM remodeling. These changes don’t just make you stiff; they can contribute to reduced nutrient flux and altered mechanical signaling, which in turn supports a more insulin‑resistant, inflamed environment.

Somatic Yoga for Better Sleep:
Your Metabolic Recovery Protocol
After 50, sleep becomes more than rest—it becomes a key regulator of muscle preservation, glucose metabolism, and hormonal balance.
Research shows that age-related changes in muscle signaling can make strength gains and tissue repair less efficient over time. While the stimulus for growth begins during movement and resistance training, it is processed and integrated during deep sleep—particularly during slow-wave cycles when growth hormone release supports protein synthesis and cellular repair.
When deep sleep is disrupted:
- Muscle repair becomes less efficient
- Inflammatory markers may rise
- Insulin sensitivity can decline
- Glucose regulation becomes more fragile
Even short-term sleep restriction has been shown to measurably impair metabolic flexibility.

Yoga with Weights:
Building Strength for Bone Health and Metabolic Resilience
As we age, maintaining muscle becomes essential—not just for strength, but for metabolic health, balance, and vitality. After age 50, muscle loss is one of the biggest drivers of metabolic slowdown.
Muscle tissue plays a key role in regulating blood sugar and energy; when we lose it, even healthy habits can feel less effective, and fatigue and weight gain can creep in.
Retaining muscle strength is equally important for keeping your bones strong and maintaining your functional health and balance that will help prevent falls and fractures.
The solution isn't complicated: you need to build and maintain muscle. But here's where it gets interesting for yoga practitioners.
Traditional strength training works—but it comes with limitations. Isolated movements on machines don't train the integrated movement patterns you use in daily life. Heavy weights can stress aging joints.

The Fascia Revolution:
Beyond Strength Building - Keys to Enhanced Movement Longevity
Join the Inner Circle: Monthly Masterclass Sessions
with Eva Norlyk Smith and Lynn Crimando
A Five-Session Monthly Masterclass Series!
You've been dedicated to your practice for years. You understand alignment, you know how to engage your core, and you've maintained your strength training routine. Yet why do injuries still happen? Why does movement sometimes feel restricted despite all your efforts? The missing piece may be the health of your fascial network—the often-overlooked connective tissue that can make or break your movement longevity.
This five-session mentoring series reveals why muscle strength alone isn't enough to maintain lifelong mobility and how the health of your fascia determines whether your body moves with fluid grace or rigid compensation patterns. Unlike repetitive weight training that can create fascial restrictions and adhesions, you'll learn movement strategies that simultaneously build strength while keeping your fascial matrix hydrated, elastic, and resilient.
Session 1: The Hidden Force Network - How Fascia Amplifies or Sabotages Your Strength
Discover why your fascia—not just your muscles—holds the key to retaining strength, preventing injury and extending your movement longevity. Learn how traditional strength training often creates fascial restrictions that limit your body's natural movement patterns and why the "lift heavy and repeat" mentality may be setting you up for future mobility problems. We'll explore the latest research on fascial health and introduce you to the concept of intelligent strength training that works with your body's interconnected web rather than against it.
Discover why fascial adhesions from repetitive movement patterns can reduce your strength output and create the compensation patterns that lead to injury, even when your muscles test strong.
Session 2: The Hydration Highway: Keeping Your Fascial Matrix Fluid and Responsive
Explore the critical role of fascial hydration in maintaining movement quality and preventing injury. Learn why dehydrated fascia becomes sticky and restrictive, creating the internal "glue" that limits your range of motion and force transmission. Discover specific movement strategies and lifestyle practices that keep your fascial matrix optimally hydrated, plus learn to recognize the early warning signs of fascial dehydration before they become movement limitations.
Session 3: The Release and Restore Protocol: Undoing Decades of Movement Restrictions
Even with perfect movement practices, years of life create fascial restrictions that need targeted attention. Learn evidence-based techniques for releasing fascial adhesions and restoring tissue glide without aggressive manipulation. Discover gentle but effective methods using breath, micro-movements, and sustained holds that help your fascia return to its natural state of fluid responsiveness, plus understand when to use active release versus passive restoration.
Session 4: Multi-Dimensional Movement: Training Your Fascia for Real-World Resilience
Most injuries happen in the movements we don't practice—the unexpected twist, the off-balance reach, the quick direction change. Learn why training only in predictable patterns (like traditional weight lifting) leaves your fascial system unprepared for life's dynamic demands. Discover how to incorporate spiraling, rotating, and multi-planar movements into your practice to build fascial resilience and create a body that can respond gracefully to the unexpected.
Session 5: Integration and Longevity: Your Personal Movement Freedom Blueprint
Synthesize everything you've learned into a personalized approach for maintaining fascial health throughout your lifetime. Learn how to assess your own fascial restrictions, create targeted movement sequences for your specific needs, and develop the body awareness to catch problems before they become injuries. Leave with a clear understanding of how to modify your existing practice to support both muscle strength and fascial health for true movement longevity.
By the end of this series, you'll understand why keeping your fascia healthy is the secret to maintaining the freedom of movement you've worked so hard to cultivate. You'll have practical tools to prevent the subtle restrictions that accumulate over time and rob you of your natural grace, power, and resilience. Most importantly, you'll know how to train intelligently for longevity, not just strength, ensuring that your body remains your trusted ally for decades to come.
After age 50, muscles become less responsive to the same exercise that maintained strength in younger years—a phenomenon called anabolic resistance. This two-workshop series teaches evidence-based strategies to counter this change and support metabolic health.
You'll learn why muscles lose mass and strength after 50 through four specific mechanisms, and more importantly, how to address this decline. The workshops introduce three powerful approaches: sustained holds (time under tension), progressive loading as you adapt, and eccentric emphasis—controlled lowering that produces 30-50% more force than lifting.
This isn't typical yoga class intensity. The practice is noticeably more challenging, with clear connections to the science presented. You'll also learn how every lowering movement in daily life—sitting in a chair, getting into bed, walking downstairs—becomes an opportunity for strength building.

Optimizing Your Breath:
Yogic Breath for Cellular Vitality
With Doug Keller
Healthy breathing is about quality more than quantity.
There are many elements to achieving this, which can be incorporated into movement practices for better breathing — and these online sessions are about doing just that!
One element has to do with enhancing our body’s natural production of nitric oxide as we breathe. It’s a molecule that plays an essential role in increasing circulation by keeping our arteries supple, and delivering oxygen into cells. Our immune function, body weight, circulation, mood, and sexual function can all be heavily influenced by the amount of nitric oxide in the body.
Nasal breathing can boost nitric oxide sixfold, which is one of the reasons we can absorb 18% more oxygen by breathing through the nose compared to breathing through the mouth.
However, as we get older, on the average, the body’s production of nitric oxide declines by over 50% after age 40 — if we don’t pay attention to how we breathe!
Fundamental yogic breath practices — which can be combined with movement — can reverse this decline and stimulate nitric oxide production as well as optimizing the use of the diaphragm and maintaining flexibility in the rib cage, ensuring that our breathing patterns meet our body’s needs, giving the body time and space to absorb the breath.
