As you become more flexible, your circulation will improve and you’ll reduce the chance of injury.

Maintaining strength and flexibility is important for health, and is essential for returning to an active, pain-free lifestyle.

In this midweek course you will learn:

• A simple warm-up routine to increase flexibility and muscle tone
• Exercises that can be done in a chair
• How to modify postures for any injuries, physical weakness, or stiffness you may be experiencing
• Breathing, energizing exercises and short meditations that will help you relax and increase endurance
• Affirmations to help you bring more positive energy into every day
• A personalized daily routine to take home

Uddhava Ramsden, your course instructor, began teaching yoga in 1996 with a focus on extra-gentle yoga for seniors and special needs. The class size will allow him to help with each student’s unique situation, so yoga will be comfortable and enjoyable for you and still give you the often life-changing benefits. This course will inspire you to use these postures as a regular part of your day.

Treat yourself to this healing, transformative, and fun weekend!

Ananda Chair Yoga starts the afternoon of the first date listed. It’s ideal to arrive before 4 pm, if you are able to. That way, you can join in the afternoon session of yoga and meditation, which begins at 4:45 pm. Dinner is at 6:30. The first real gathering of your group is at 7:30 pm. If you need to arrive here after 5 pm, that’s fine, but it helps us if you let us know at 800-346-5350. We can also put aside a dinner for you if you need to arrive after 7 pm. The program ends with lunch on the last date. Please see our Daily Schedule.
