Yoga With A Chair

$12 suggested or “whatever feels appropriate”

Instructor:  Donna Smyth

Have you wanted to practice Yoga, but were concerned about getting down, and coming up from the floor?  If you answered “yes,” this gentle stretch Yoga session may be for you. This practice will introduce participants to poses that can be done with, or in a chair.  We will also have the opportunity to practice simple breath work and meditation.

The RSVP Bone Builders Program relies upon weight training and balance exercises to protect against fractures caused by osteoporosis by increasing muscular strength, balance and bone density. Exercises will be adjusted to individual needs. 

 

Developed at Tufts University we are happy to bring back this program to Vernon at the GHH Community Center.
