What is Chair Yoga?
Chair yoga is a broad practice that covers many styles of traditional yoga and is becoming increasingly popular for work from home individuals.

In this training we are embracing these ideas so that we can provide fun, functional, safe and engaging classes for students of all levels and interests.
