Oops! Something went wrong on our end.

This gentle, yet effective class provides a complete practice for strengthening the whole body while seated safely in a chair. Begin with simple stress relieving shoulder circles, then move into some side bends, hamstring stretches, and spinal rolls for mobility. Your practice will peak with a gentle arm series that can be done with or without hand weights, then cool down with hip openers and a spinal twist. You’ll be surprised how challenged you can feel while preserving your safety, integrity, and alignment. Props Needed: A chair and light weights.
