I had never heard of Chair Yoga until about 6 months ago... but I'm so glad my neighbour introduced me to it!
I now teach Chair Yoga at our local
fitness facility, I teach every Wednesday, but this does not mean
it's the only time I practice it.
As Chair Yoga is done sitting down, you
can take time out from computer work, do it while you're watching T.V. and even outside!
I am in a wheelchair and many might
think, wheelchair? Well you CAN'T do anything then... Yes you can
still exercise, it has made me more aware of my breathing and made my
life meaningful. Again, not only is it great for those in
wheelchairs, but it's wonderful for anyone; problem's getting down on
the floor, or up off the floor? No worries here!
You may think it's more for the
elderly, that's just not the case, the positions can mostly be
modified for people who are more flexible and for those who
aren't... BUT you're in a chair, how can you possibly be exercising?
BELIEVE me you are, there are numerous times after Chair Yoga, that I
feel my muscles or body more than before!
