This class allows each person to embrace Yoga asana (postures) and breath awareness at a gentle pace and in stages. It encourages an understanding of how your body moves and what it needs to feel great.
Objectives:
Nikki demonstrated various yoga poses using a chair as a prop for support. She explained how to use the chair to stretch and elongate the sides of the body, and how to adjust the chair's position for different poses. She also showed how to use the chair for a twist, emphasizing the importance of keeping the legs parallel and the hip and knee joints in line. Participants were encouraged to practice these poses with the chair for better stability and flexibility.
