CLASS DESCRIPTION

 

CHAIR YOGA
Enjoy all the benefits of yoga while seated. Absolute beginners are very welcome + those that prefer or require a seated class.

Boost circulation, improve balance, posture, flexibility and range of movement. Sessions include a breathing exercise, guided meditation or mindfulness technique. Some yoga will be done standing while using the chair back for support to build balance and leg strength

​

GENTLE HATHA YOGA

Criteria for attendance Gentle mat yoga requires participants to be able to lie down on a yoga mat and get up and down off the floor for simple standing poses. You’ll be guided through a range of yoga postures & practices to release muscle tension + improve flexibility and balance. Sessions include a breathing exercise, guided meditation or mindfulness technique
 

HATHA YOGA
Criteria for attendance - This is the class for you if you can get up and down off the floor with ease, lie on your back, sides, front and perhaps kneel and sit for a short period on the mat + if you've done some yoga before. This class is stronger than the Gentle Mat Class but we'll still work within your ability on the day. Offering a different therapeutic theme each week, you’ll be guided through a range of yoga postures & a breathing exercise, guided meditation or mindfulness technique

 

CHECK-LIST
