Chair yoga offers numerous benefits tailored specifically for seniors, making it an ideal form of exercise for older adults. One of the primary advantages is its accessibility and safety, as it can be practiced while sitting or holding onto a chair for support, reducing the risk of falls or strain. Chair yoga promotes flexibility, gently stretching muscles and joints to maintain or improve range of motion. It also enhances balance and stability through controlled movements, which is crucial for preventing injuries. Moreover, chair yoga incorporates breathing exercises and relaxation techniques that can reduce stress, promote mental clarity, and improve overall well-being. SSG Senior Specialist, Sally Hartinian will lead this class.
