In this fully online course, Introduction to Chair Yoga, you will learn how to do yoga sitting on a chair or using the chair as a prop. This is designed for beginners. You will be happy to know it is easier to learn yoga sitting on a chair. In chair yoga you can focus on your body movements, all the yoga postures, learning yoga breathing techniques and letting go of the anxiety around falling. Most of my chair yoga students also find it easy to meditate sitting on a chair because they are so much more comfortable than sitting cross-legged on the floor.

This is also designed for you to practice chair yoga in the comfort of your home.

All yoga students are different. This course (and the textbook) considers this and includes a variety of options to choose from. Which option you choose for each pose will depend on your own health, ability to move up and down, who is assisting you and how balanced you feel each day.

The textbook for this class is included in pdf form but if you would like a paperback copy, you can buy it on Amazon.

I found yoga students using canes, walkers and wheelchairs enjoyed this type of class because they felt secure on their chair. I also learned not everyone needs to sit on a chair for every posture, some people like to move around the chair using it for balance when needed. So, we will review all in the chair yoga and yoga using the chair as a prop. You will choose the poses you like depending on how you feel each day.
