Chair Yoga is an adapted, gentler style using a chair for assistance when seated or standing. It is an excellent practice for people of all ages and capabilities, particularly for those recovering from injury, surgery or managing long term health conditions. Chair Yoga practice offers numerous benefits including stretching, strengthening, improved balance and greater feelings of calm and peace within.
Typically, our group sessions begin with an energy grounding exercise, followed by limbering up before practising a variety of seated and standing asanas. Students then warm down before relaxation or guided meditation to help induce greater inner calm and peace. Sessions will often include mudras (ancient hand gestures), prananyama (breathing techniques), oracle card readings and alignment to the energies of moon phases to improve connection and awareness within.
Our Chair Yogi’s have a lovely social calendar too, so you will never be short of friendship and fun in good company.
