Are you enjoying any health benefits from Chair Yoga?

“Yes, I already feel a bit more balanced and my breathing tends to be less shallow. I also feel my legs moving more easily.”
“Yes, I can now get up from a low seat without holding on for support.”
“I have more confidence climbing the 40 stairs to the door of my attic bedsitter. I guess I’ll be able to stay longer in my home!”

Chair Salutation with a Twist

What a fun way to move those feet!

Moving those Feet

“Thank you very much for your concern.

Luckily, thanks to you, everyone on our yoga class is very friendly and helpful to one another.  

Jerry and Diane insisted on driving me home.”

Important to sit properly on the chair for CHAIR YOGA.

Chair Asana:

*sit on the edge of the chair

* knees & feet two fists distance apart

* push down on your heels to sit tall, lengthening your spine

* smile (attitude is everything)

What a fantastic combination – YOGA & DANCING. We all have fun too!

January 2015

 I was feeling lousy when I came in – but I am feeling much better now!

I find that yoga is a relaxing experience in both physical and mental dimensions.

I am told by my family that I am less ‘feeble’ since I took up yoga!!

 Yoga is a new experience and worth the effort.

Our yoga teacher inspires us….come and get fit!

Yoga makes me more flexible – which is a good thing.

I feel more flexible and not so stiff

I love yoga. I feel very relaxed after each class I come to.
