Chair Yoga increases the accessibility and inclusivity to the benefits of yoga without folks being concerned with balance, placing stress on joints, or where floor poses are not an available option. Sheri Machado is a certified yoga teacher who has been instructing a variety of yoga classes for the past 10 years. Participants should have water and comfortable clothing. If possible, have a comfortable, stable chair preferably without arms. The chair should have rubber feet and/or a way to secure it so it does not move. Placing it on a thin yoga mat that is on a hardware floor will work. There is a 10 minute muscle conditioning component that folks can choose to use dumbbells if they have them, or bottles of water and/or cans of soup as a substitute.
