Chair/Adaptive Yoga
Thursdays at 6pm CT
Do you feel too uncomfortable in your body to practice yoga? Do you feel like yoga is not for you? Do
you wish to find peace and calm in the midst of chaos? Then come try a chair/adaptive yoga class to
meet you just where you are and give you the tools to fight the stressors and anxieties of every day life.
Most chair/adaptive yoga classes use a chair, but we also work on balance and strength with standing
poses using the floor or a wall. Expect to cultivate strength as well as a stretch in this chair/adaptive
yoga class. Bring a chair (without wheels) to class or simply sit on the edge of a bed or couch, or even a
pillow or blanket on the ground. A yoga mat, blocks, and a strap can be useful if you have them, but they
are not required.
You will receive the Zoom meeting link via email when you sign up for the class! Donations can be made
