In this training, you will learn how to lead a chair yoga class, which is a gentler, slower pace of yoga designed for people of varying ages and physical ability. Yoga provides gentle, stabilizing, and strength building postures enhancing mental clarity. Seniors enjoy the group activities and socialization. They develop more confidence in a casual, nurturing, and fun environment. Yogic breathing increases levels of vitality and enthusiasm and enhances their spirit. Various class sequences will be presented: using yoga props, using the wall, standing poses with the chair and other ideas for group activities.
