Having practiced Yoga myself for a good few years and teaching for over 4 years, I can see that all of our bodies move in different ways. That might mean for some of us, we prefer and need a much more gentle, accessible Yoga class that isn't purely mat based, where we'd benefit from using props for support, like using a chair. There are so many benefits to practicing Yoga - improving strength and mobility, finding more calm in our everyday, learning mindfulness techniques... The list goes on! All of us can greatly benefit from the wonderful magic of Yoga in our lives, if we're all able to attend a class that suits what our bodies need physically. 

​

This Gentle Chair Yoga class will be 45 minutes of using our chairs for support to keep your Yoga practice accessible for your body. There will be a very short section of the class for optional standing poses, but seated modifications will be given if standing isn't accessible for you during a Yoga class. We'll include plenty of strengthening exercises, mobility exercises, balancing poses, full body stretches to work out any stiffness in the body as well as lots of mindfulness and relaxing breathwork and meditation to welcome some calm into your week. We'll finish with 15 minutes to have a cup of tea, biscuits and a chat to build a community of Yogis as for some of us, getting out of the house to meet socially with like minded people is the breath of fresh air you needed.

If you'd like to chat through anything before coming along to class, please do ring or email me.  If you're reading this and know a loved one would really benefit from this class, then absolutely you can book the class on their behalf.
