Highlights from last year's conference:

2008 Inspiration Award The Inner IDEA Inspiration Award recognizes individuals whose outstanding leadership in the wellness field has inspired people toward mindful activity and a healthy lifestyle. The 2008 award recipients were Frank and Serpil Iszak, founders of Silver Age Yoga Community Outreach. Their program provides instructors with skills to teach older yoga students, reaching over 400 seniors. Frank and Serpil have trained over 100 yoga teachers in geriatric science-based yoga to meet the special needs of their senior citizens. So far, over 4,000 free weekly classes have been delivered at 23 sites in San Diego since the start of this project five years ago.
