CHAIR YOGA & MOBILITY
Chair yoga is a safe and effective way for seniors and people with limited movement to relieve stress, stay active,
improve mobility and maintain strength.

It's functional, fun and helps people feel better!
Our philosophy is simple, if you can breathe you can do yoga.
Our goal is to help people do more with the time that they have. We want our students to spend less time with aches and pains, with feelings of worry and fear, and more time doing the things that they enjoy doing.
