Chair yoga is a gentle form of yoga that is practiced while sitting on a chair or using a chair for support. It is especially beneficial for individuals with chronic pain, limited mobility or conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia or back pain.

This practice adapts traditional yoga poses to be more accessible, reducing strain on joints and muscles while still providing the benefits of movement, stretching and relaxation. 

Watch for details on additional sessions hosted by the Center for Health Education and Wellness (CHEW) that will take place March 23, April 13 and 20.
