Chair Yoga is suitable for those who find a regular yoga class too strenuous, are recovering from injury or illness or are typically less active and mobile.
The class takes students through centering and breath-work, followed by a guided, intelligently sequenced practice of postures that take the joints through their full range of movement whilst seated or through use of the chair whilst standing. These postures provide gentle stretching, improved strength, and flexibility, as well as helping students to find balance and calm in everyday life.
Louise is running weekly Chair Yoga classes at Ananta Yoga & Ayurveda in Wicklow Town, Arus Lorcain in Arklow and Brockagh resource Centre is Laragh with great feedback from her students. She also runs classes in nursing homes and other organisations.
