Chair Yoga

Practising yoga while seated develops a slow and mindful movement programme focused on joint mobility and flexibility. This class is available to all irrespective of age, ability, or experience. Chair yoga explores the body’s full range of movement without weight impact which can be beneficial when recovering from illness or injury. During class breath-work exercises are incorporated which increases the capacity of the lungs, boosts circulation reducing blood pressure, and reduces anxiety by moving us out of the ‘fight or flight’ part of the nervous system. 

Potential benefits of the Chair Yoga program include:

• Reduces stress and anxiety with the development of mindful movement and intuitive awareness of the present moment experience. 
  
  
• Allows for exercises of mobility and flexibility without putting stress or strain on joints.
