Yes – really.
'Hands Up'
The idea started with an adapted version of the Hokey Pokey, then mushroomed into the ‘Hora’ on Fridays (for Shabbat Yoga) and now our Chair Yoga Dance repertoire includes the Macarena, Stompa, Hands Up and Twist & Shout. We even tried a little ‘free dancing’ to some Motown music last class (thanks to Judith).
What a fun way to up the cardio; so good for the soul, the mind and the body.
Who said you cannot dance in a chair?
