Seated Yoga & Breathwork class
By Mary Fentouri
Let's flow with some Yoga that's tailor made for you!
Introducing Seated yoga, a practice that goes beyond any limitation.
(No need of prior experience to yoga or any other exercise)
Using your chair/seat for seated poses or balancing poses, you can take advantage of the many benefits yoga provides, such as:
-
increased circulation
-
improved strength and elongation of the muscles
-
improved self-awareness
-
reduced stress
-
improved pain management skills
-
decreased inflammation and chronic pain
-
better sleep
We will also use the technique of breathwork, a mindful practice that involves consciously manipulating your breath to improve mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Through intentional breathing techniques, breathwork aims to reduce stress, increase relaxation, and enhance overall mindfulness.
