Chair Yoga - for Flexibility and Strength

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


Chair yoga
Chair yoga can improve your flexibility, concentration and strength, while boosting your mood, and reducing stress and joint strain.
Yoga has been shown to improve overall health when practiced regularly. As with many forms of exercise, it can be modified for people of varying abilities. Chair yoga is a gentle form of yoga that can be done sitting on a chair or standing on the ground while using the chair for support.  It’s a great exercise for pretty much anyone — from corporate workers sitting at a desk all day to people who have flexibility or balance issues or who can’t get down on the floor to exercise.

Additionally, a recent study from Florida Atlantic University shows that chair yoga is an effective alternative treatment for reducing pain related to osteoarthritis.

Classes will be taught by Beth Bartell.  Beth is a certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor.  She has been teaching yoga for over 24 years including Yoga for Better Backs and Yoga for MS. She will be happy to help you modify the program for your specific issues.
