Seated Yoga or Chair Yoga is a gentle way of maintaining and improving balance, strength and mobility. All exercises are done either in a sturdy chair or using the chair for support, so no need to get on the floor! Movements are slow and controlled and aim to improve strength and flexibility.

You will need to wear loose clothing. Footwear should be comfortable. If it is removed there should be socks worn to reduce slipping.

Water is a necessary addition. A blanket may be used for relaxation at the end of the class.

You will be asked to complete a health questionnaire before the session begins, to enable the lead to assess the limits of the group and fashion the session accordingly.
