Benefits of Adapted Yoga for Mobility and Wellbeing 🌿

Chair and standing yoga provides accessible ways to experience yoga's many benefits without needing to get down on the floor. This adapted approach to yoga is particularly valuable for:

• Improving balance and stability - carefully designed poses help strengthen your core and lower body muscles that keep you steady on your feet
• Building functional strength - movements focus on the muscles you use in everyday activities, helping maintain independence
• Increasing flexibility and range of motion - gentle stretches help keep joints mobile and muscles supple
• Enhancing breathing capacity - breathing exercises improve lung function and oxygen circulation
• Reducing stress and tension - mindful movements combined with breath awareness create a calming effect on the nervous system

Chair and standing yoga modifications make yoga accessible without sacrificing its core benefits. These adaptations allow participants to focus on proper alignment and technique while honoring their body's unique needs and capabilities.

The Diamond Harbour Green Room provides a welcoming, community-focused space for your wellness journey. Join us to experience how this thoughtfully adapted yoga practice can help you move with greater ease, confidence and joy in your daily life.
