“It was absolutely brilliant to keep the classes up for a week… I can follow you at 8:17 am or 3:44 pm, or whenever I have the hour… Now that I am viewing the class more than once I have started to be able to climb stairs with both legs again instead of always leading with one. That is a huge success for me, and it’s all due to yoga. My arthritis is significant and yet I am able to keep it at bay when I keep up with your exercises. Hurray!!”– S.W.
Instructions for how to access these classes will be sent once you register for the classes.
Chair Yoga is a supported healing class done entirely from any type of chair. This class emphasizes breath work, building a healing focus and meditation to promote a greater sense of well-being and stress relief. Practice a variety of stretching and strengthening poses designed to increase circulation and strength so your movement is more stable. Poses are seated or standing with the support of a chair and practiced very slowly, so there is time to move without rush. Doctor’s medical release highly encouraged.
