About Chair Yoga

This senior-friendly chair yoga class is a gentle and accessible option to improve flexibility, strength and balance, all while seated or using a chair for support. Perfect for individuals with limited mobility who want to engage in yoga but may find traditional poses challenging, we will incorporate gentle stretching, breathing techniques and mindful movement. You can expect a mix of seated and standing exercises (using the chair for balance), with verbal cues to guide you through each pose. Each class will begin and end with a short guided relaxation to promote stress release and improve body awareness.
