Description

Mellow does not have to be boring! Treat yourself (or a loved one) to this nourishing chair yoga program designed to enhance mobility and help reduce aches and pains. It is easy to follow and easy on the joints.

The focus of this program is on actual class time where we practice yoga together. So you follow along with the teacher, and we always practice both sides, where applicable. There are seven classes in total, including one class with a massage focus, and every class is between 35 and 40 minutes long. As a series they start simple and gently build in complexity and coordination, but each class is also a complete stand-alone practice in itself.

Every session begins and ends with a brief guided meditation to help you get centred and grounded. This in turn helps you to relax and self-regulate, resulting in less stress and anxiety.

Once purchased, all classes are available as downloads, meaning you can enjoy them even when you're offline, at your own convenience, at your own pace, and you can repeat them as often as you wish! 

Included in this course is access to a Facebook community group where you can ask questions, share your experiences, and find support.

This course is backed by a 30 day money-back guarantee.

Who this course is for:

  • Seniors
  • Beginners
  • Anyone with mobility limitations
  • Anyone who wants to break up long periods of sitting with chair exercises
  • Yoga teachers looking to add to their repertoire of chair yoga poses
