Gentle Chair Yoga
Yoga for Every Body! If you are new to yoga -- chair yoga is a great way to start! It is safe, fun, and there’s no downside to using chairs for fitness.
Non-fit people or folks a little disconnected from their bodies can give themselves permission to try something as non-threatening as moving while sitting in a chair.
Fit people can still ‘feel good’ from discovering the deeper breathing connected to the slower movement.
You are only one yoga class away from a good mood!
Marina started practicing yoga in 1995, and for the past seven years has taught locally. Marina also offers Gentle Yoga every Monday and Wednesday at 11:00 am. Chairs are provided.
Questions about Gentle Chair Yoga please contact instructor, Marina Kachur, at 480-510-6572 or yokama14@gmail.com.
Cost: $10 cash, paid to instructor at each class
