Why teach Chair Yoga?
Chair Yoga can be adapted for anyone whether they are office bound or wheel chair bound.
​
(I have taught chair yoga to seniors (80 & 90 year olds) for over
16 years, not only does it still give me joy to lead classes,
it has given me a broader vision of what yoga truly is and it really is for anyone).
​
It's a fun, healthy & effective way to refocus and calm kids in school.
​
Sometimes a chair is needed for a more slow and therapeutic approach with a private client.
​
Chair yoga is great for hospitals where the balance, strength and stress relief benefits are perfect with people with health challenges, i.e. cancer, parkinsons, stroke, sciatica, RA, stenosis and more.
​
Some of our certified teachers use this for friends who are facing life challenges.
