Chair Yoga – taught by qualifed yoga instructor Louise Curran –  is suitable for those who may find our regular yoga classes too strenuous – those who may be completely new to yoga, recovering from injury or illness or generally less active and mobile. It is also – of course suitable for all yoga students who simply would like to try this method of practice.

Adhering to the Vinyasa Krama (step by step, breath connected) approach, this class takes students through centring and breath-work, followed by a guided, intelligently sequenced practice of postures that take the joints through their full range of movement whilst seated or through use of the chair for support whilst standing. These postures will encourage gentle stretching, improve strength and flexibility, as well as helping students to find balance and calm in everyday life.

Louise is running two weekly Chair Yoga classes at our studios as well as in Laragh and Aughrim with great feedback from her students. She also runs classes in nursing homes and other organisations.
