CLASSES
Chair Yoga
Chair yoga is a form of hatha yoga adapted to be performed using a chair as a prop. It allows practitioners to perform yoga poses either while seated or using the chair for support during standing poses. This modification makes yoga accessible to individuals who may have limited mobility, are recovering from injury, or find standard yoga poses challenging. Chair yoga incorporates breathwork, physical postures, and mindfulness, but eliminates the need to get up and down from the floor, making it safer and more comfortable for many people.
