Postural alignment, flexibility, and stability are important at any
age, and as we age, they become even more critical. If you have
considered taking a yoga class, but feel like you are too “old”,
too “stiff”, or are thinking that yoga is just for the young, this
class is for you. CHAIR YOGA IS AN ACCESSIBLE FORM OF YOGA OFFERING
POSTURES THAT MAKE IT IDEAL FOR BEGINNERS OF ANY AGE. There isn’t
any special clothing required and you can do it with your shoes on!
With attention on our breath, we’ll focus on range of motion and
postures that are designed to increase your flexibility, stability and
alignment as well as to provide relaxation and ease. No experience
necessary. Each class will start with breathing and centering
exercises to build awareness. Simple postures will be introduced and
expanded upon from week to week. All movements will originate from a
seated CHAIR POSITION AND ARE ACCESSIBLE FOR ALL LEVELS OF FITNESS.
Optional modifications will be offered for those who would like to
experiment with the postures on the mat. Join us in-person or
virtually via zoom. A link will be provided prior to the start of the
start of the program, and the SESSIONS WILL BE RECORDED. Jude
