GENTLE CHAIR YOGA for special populations

Taught by Bob Patrick

This class is intended for students who have physical limitations, especially any student for whom being on your hands and knees or repeatedly getting down on and up from the yoga mat would be difficult. Classes will include breath work, and a combination of movements to open hips and shoulders, maintain spinal flexion and balance and bring the benefits of yoga to these special students.
