During these uncertain times, as we collectively navigate our way through the Covid-19 pandemic, I have decided to explore teaching my Gentle Chair Yoga classes online. These classes are offered through The Yoga Effect. Visit TYE webiste (www.theyogaeffect.com) for more information and to register for classes.
Covid-19 Update
Chair Yoga
“Chair yoga is part of the hatha branch of yoga. Hatha relates to yoga of the body, including poses, breathing, and meditation. Yoga techniques help you create a better harmony between your body, mind, and spirit. They also provide you with a low-impact way to increase strength, flexibility, and balance, while teaching you how to relax.”
from Chair Yoga for You (C. Adkins, et al.)
Pre-Covid-19 Weekly Chair Yoga Teaching Schedule
“The benefits of yoga include improving balance, decreasing stress, increasing flexibility, strengthening bones, stabilizing blood pressure, reducing pain and injuries, developing and toning muscles, and helping us age more gracefully. Learning simple breathing techniques aids in calming our chattering minds and helps us focus and de-stress our busy lives.”
