Chair Yoga

October 14, 2027 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am CDT

People bending at the waist with their hands on a chair in front of them.

Join us each Thursday morning at 9 AM for chair yoga. This is a gently combination of stretching, exercise and yoga. 

Chair yoga, a gentle form of yoga that’s done while seated or using a chair for balance, makes the practice more accessible. In chair yoga, it’s possible to move into poses like cat/cow, warrior, sun salutations and forward folds, all while seated.

Whether yoga is done in a chair or on the mat, the practice still focuses on the same core principles: focusing on your breath, paying attention to your thoughts, and staying in the moment.

Research shows yoga is linked to decreased levels of stress, anxiety, and depression, lowered cholesterol and blood pressure, improved energy, better sleep quality, less pain, and reduced body mass index. Matt Minard PT, DPT, physical therapist with Atrium Health in Charlotte, NC, believes those benefits extend to chair yoga.

Chair yoga is also a good, safe workout for beginners.
