Did you know you could practice yoga from a chair? Chair yoga gently stretches the joints and muscles through deep breathing and relaxing meditation. The program teaches many basic yoga poses from a chair to reduce pain, increase circulation, enhance flexibility, improve balance, sharpen coordination, and strengthen muscles. This course is geared for seniors. No yoga experience necessary.
Instructor: Registered Yoga Teacher Andrew Lee
Andrew is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) 200 with the Yoga Alliance and has been teaching for over seven years. Andrew teaches vinyasa and specializes in power yoga, chair (esp. for seniors and people with developmental disabilities), restorative, partner yoga, meditation and more. Over the years, he has established yoga programs at various studios and community centres. He strongly believes yoga can improve one’s general well-being. Andrew is also a certified martial arts instructor who is currently in the process of developing his own style of yoga, called Keung Lui Gung, which fuses Shorin Ryu Karate, Qi Gong, and Vinyasa Yoga.
This program uses the chair to modify various yoga poses and sequences for sedentary adults and people with limited range of motion. Props, such as blocks and straps, may be used to enhance the posture’s effectiveness. Standing poses that uses the support of a chair will be included for a more active workout. This form of yoga is also beneficial for corporate office workers who can sneak in a few stretches behind the desk! No yoga experience necessary.
Vinyasa Flow Yoga connects movement with the breath to create a continuous “flow” of poses. This smooth, rhythmic sequence strengthens the joints, tones the muscles, increases flexibility, improves balance, sharpens coordination, and enhances mobility. All poses can be modified to suit your physical limitations. Students experience advanced meditation practices to not only relax the mind and body, but to also transcend into a higher spiritual level. No yoga experience necessary.
