Academy of Lions Presents

Bone Health Seminar

A hands-on workshop for women to build strength, support bone health, and reduce fracture risk at any age.

Saturday, April 18 1:30–3:30 PM Academy of Lions
Why This Workshop Matters

Bone Health Is Often Overlooked

Bone health is an important topic for women at every stage of life, yet it rarely gets the practical attention it deserves.

Younger women benefit from building bone density and bone quality early, creating a stronger foundation for later years. Older women benefit from improving strength, balance, and movement quality to help reduce fracture risk.

This workshop is designed to cut through misinformation and give women a clear, evidence-based starting point they can actually use.

Mary-Jane Braide

MJ Braide is a longtime member of Academy of Lions in the Masters program. In 2023, her concern from a bone density test initiated a drive to immerse herself in researching osteoporosis and bone health. Her research lead to not only designing a diet and strength programming, but her dedication in helping more women manage their bone health and avoid life-limiting fractures.
