Prolonged sitting can negatively impact health. Studies show that even short breaks to move can help counteract the harmful effects of sitting. The class will include movements for legs, hips, arms, as well as core strengthening of neck, back, chest and torso. Chair yoga is a gentle way to improve your flexibility and strength while seated in a chair. Standing postures with the chair as a support will also be an option.
Thursdays, 10:45-11:30am ET Oct. 2 through Nov. 20 (eight 45-minute sessions)
