This online yoga class will help people of varied abilities gradually increase their strength, flexibility and mobility.
About the Event
This virtual adaptive yoga class is designed for people of varied abilities and is unique in that it takes vinyasa-inspired sequences and adapts them to a hybrid seated and standing chair-assisted practice. Ground poses are offered for those who can get on the floor, with modifications and chair-based alternatives for those who cannot. We use hand weights in a few poses, and mindfulness, meditation and breathing (pranayama) are integral to the practice.
This workout can help you gradually become stronger and more flexible and mobile. Props you may want to have handy: a chair without arms, 4“ x 6“ x 9“-inch yoga blocks or a rolled towel or blanket, an 8’ or 10’ yoga strap with a D-buckle, a Theraband and hand weights. Please consult your physician before beginning any new exercise regimen.
