Chair Yoga - Balancing Effort and Ease

Take a 45 minute self care break to strengthen while improving flexibility through the active stretches of yoga. While we will remain seated for some of the class, we stand and use the chair for support for some poses, with modifications so all levels can practice. Recorded Feb. 17th, 2026. Our 45 minute classes will incorporate some of the following: 1. Breath exercises for reducing stress and boosting the immune system 2. Gentle stretches designed to energize the whole body 3. Yoga poses that move the lymph fluid, and improve balance and steadiness 4. Meditations to facilitate mindfulness, acceptance, and relaxation Important Note: Yoga is a complementary or integrative practice to be used in conjunction with standard medical treatment.
