Seated Yoga

This taster session will introduce you to the practice of Chair Yoga - participants can remain seated for the whole session. It aims to bring yoga to people who may feel that a general yoga class may not suit them for a variety of reasons. Perhaps you have arthritis, chronic fatigue, have difficulty transitioning from lying to sitting or standing ? Or you would like to try some light exercise, breathing techniques and meet new people - Chair Yoga may be the ideal activity for you.
