CHAIR YOGA (1) This is the perfect class for beginners and those seeking more confidence in their yoga practice.

Learn to move the spine more fluidly, and build your strength with symmetrical balance. Explore these techniques which can easily be practiced at home. My own spine/joint injuries and chronic pain help inform this practice, so I deeply understand. Please check with your current doctor to see if this would be appropriate for your injury or pain.
HATHA FLOW (2) This class will get you moving with gentle stretching to wake up the body. Moving into postures with focus on breath and alignment through a gentle flow.
