If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s “too late” to start yoga in your 50s, 60s, or beyond — you’re not alone. Many of my students thought the same thing before their very first class. The truth? Not only is it possible to begin now, it might actually be the best time to start.

In this episode of Yoga for Longevity, I’m sharing why yoga is especially powerful for adults 50+, how it helps with strength, balance, mobility, posture, and stress, and why small, consistent steps matter more than flexibility or picture-perfect poses.

This conversation is for you if you’ve been feeling stiff, hesitant, or unsure if your body can handle yoga. Spoiler: it can — and it will thank you for it.

• Why yoga after 50 supports healthy aging more than ever
• How it helps prevent muscle loss and supports joint health
• Why yoga improves balance and reduces fall risk
• The benefits beyond movement — breath, posture, nervous system, and mental clarity
• How students in their 60s, 70s, and even 80s are building strength and confidence with yoga

I’m Mikah Horn, a yoga therapist with a Master of Science in Yoga Therapy. I help adults 50+ build strength, mobility, and confidence through therapeutic yoga — so they can keep doing the things they love for years to come.
