Chair yoga

Each class normally includes one or two short Pranayama (working with the breath) practices to increase lung capacity and promote emotional wellbeing.

This is a safe and gentle approach to yoga, with no practice on the floor. It is ideal if you are an older adult, a complete beginner or if you have one or more conditions and/or restrictions.

The functional benefits of a seated yoga practice are to increase range of motion; encourage fluid breathing and postural alignment; improve fine motor skills; increase stability; and promote independence.

There is also the option for a stronger practice class if you would prefer that. This class has similar benefits to a mainly seated practice, but includes more sit-to-stand and standing exercises tailored to your particular fitness level and flexibility. The combination of postures and a slightly quicker pace involves some low to moderate aerobic exercise.

Our private, small group classes are socially distanced and adhere to Covid-19 secure guidelines throughout to keep everyone as safe as possible.
