Workshop Canceled due to low registration: Chair Yoga for Injuries, Chronic Conditions, and Aging with Linda Pruce

Workshop canceled due to low registration

While yoga is known for its stress reduction techniques and practices that improve strength, flexibility and balance, a typical yoga class that includes getting up and down from the floor can be inaccessible for many people. Learning to integrate a chair into one's practice provides empowerment for those recovering from injury, managing chronic conditions like arthritis, herniated/degenerative discs, joint pain/replacements, compromised auto-immune systems or those refortifying a body that is aging.

Join Linda Pruce who learned first hand to navigate yoga classes and enriched her practice with the use of the chair and other props after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). In this workshop,  you will learn how to safely modify yoga poses and use a variety of props when taking public classes. Experience the benefits of yoga in your life and be inspired to add yoga to your wellness and therapeutic regimen. 

Cost: $30
