Your postural alignment, flexibility and stability are important at any age, and as we age become even more critical. If you have considered taking a yoga class but feel like you are too "old", too "stiff" or think that yoga is just for the young, this class is for you. Chair yoga is an accessible form of yoga postures that make it ideal for beginning elders. There isn't any special clothing required and you can do it with your shoes on! With attention on our breath, we'll focus on friendly postures that are designed to increase your flexibility, stability and alignment as well as to provide relaxation and ease. No experience is necessary. Join us in person at the studio or virtually via Zoom. A link will be provided before the start of the start of the program, and the sessions will be recorded. Jude Valentine is a lifelong yoga enthusiast and completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training in 2017. Additional coursework has included Trauma Informed Yoga, Energy Medicine Yoga, and Yoga for Seniors. Her classes focus on a student-centered approach that supports the awareness of the parasympathetic nervous system, breath, and range of motion. She welcomes students of all abilities in her classes and especially those new to yoga.
