Materials/Props: A Chair, preferably one without arms (but if your is an armchair, don’t worry, you’ll still be able to do the poses). You’ll also need something to be able to slide your feet on the floor (e.g., on a hard surface, you can use a towel or folded blanket; on a carpet, you can use paper plates or large furniture sliders). If you have blocks and/or a strap we will sometimes use these props.
Class meets Wednesdays 2:15 - 3:00 pm Eastern Time, April 17 - June 5, 2024 - Spring Sesssion
and again in the Summer Session: Wednesdays 2:15 - 3:00 pm Eastern Time, July 8 - September 4th, 2024
In the Summer Session, we skip the last week of August.
This chair yoga class with JJ generally starts with gentle dynamic movements with the breath. After moving in and out of a pose, we may stay in the pose for some number of breaths. JJ will encourage you along the way, but if you find yourself in a pose you’d rather not be in, simply move out of the pose and wait for the next. JJ gently guides students through a warm-up phase, then doing poses that take larger and/or deeper movements, and then through a counter-pose and cool down phase. At the beginning and/or end of class JJ will guide students through breathing exercises and/or a guided visualization for relaxation.
These classes are offered live-virtually via google meet—link will be sent to registrants.
The classes will be recorded and access to the recording links will be sent to all registered participants.
These online yoga classes are not conducive to personal care of a therapeutic nature, therefore, all students must take precautions with their own body and do only what feels comfortable and within your current capacity. If you have specific needs, please let JJ know ahead of the class time via email.
You may register for this class above or directly through: schys-yoga.thinkific
