Yoga Teachers Workshop: Accessible Chair Yoga

This course will provide you with new skills and creative ideas to offer to your friends, family or in classes. It’s a great practice for everyone, not just seniors and the less able-bodied, but also  those who  would like to learn different ways to enjoy their yoga practice without a mat: travellers, office workers…and anyone who finds themselves sitting down with 5 minutes to spare.

Yoga Teachers who might like incorporate the use of the chair in their mat-based classes will find this training particularly helpful as we look at teaching both mat-based and chair-based practices simultaneously during the live day.

There will be plenty of opportunity for  teaching practice, as well as questions and discussion of common conditions and age-related health issues.
