DAY 5 – Last Day of Training.

Thank you students for your MOTIVATION and INSPIRATION!

Day 1 & Day 2 – pics from Chair Yoga Teacher Training Course – Held at Sea Studio – Semperviva Yoga

As Buddhist teachings state: “Pain is inevitable; suffering is optional.” The difference lies in releasing resistance and accepting that it is what it is.

Just takes some practice, a lot of discipline….and a little help from the CHAIR!
