We focus on fostering an enjoyment of gentle exercise to aid in healthy aging, incorporating mostly seated yoga poses (with the option to stand for some sections) and breathing techniques.

We focus on 5 key areas:

– Posture- good posture can improve balance, bodily awareness, and the ability to breathe well.

– Breath work- learning how to breathe well can improve the body’s intake of oxygen, calm the nervous system, and lead to feelings of increased well-being. Breath work can be helpful for those suffering the effects of long-Covid and other respiratory illnesses.

– Balance- building strength, focus, and bodily awareness to aid in fall prevention.

– Mobility- using joint-mobility exercises to keep joints lubricated and moving.

– Coordination- using cross-lateral, asymmetric, and bi-lateral (crossing the midline) exercises and postures to develop better coordination.

The classes are held at Kinver Senior Citizens Club on Legion Drive. It’s a comfortable, carpeted room with good acoustics and plenty warm enough in the colder months.
