Just like a regular yoga practice, Chair yoga increases flexibility, strength and body awareness. When standing poses are included in a Chair yoga class, the chair is used to help with and improve balance. We will do basic yoga stretches in a chair with the spine elongated and both feet on the floor. The poses will involve lots of stretching while allowing pauses and reflections and some meditation. Chair Yoga can reduce stress and improve mental clarity – Chair yoga can lessen the impact of chronic illnesses and pain. It strives to achieve a calmer and more relaxed feeling of happiness and well-being, which everyone can benefit from.

T'ai Chi is a mindful practice that focuses on the relaxation of mind and body, while also helping to develop balance and strength. This practice can accommodate many levels of fitness and mobility. These classes will be centered around exploring the First Third of the form, while also spending some time with the Five Animals Qigong set. The postures of the First Third are taught in order, but there is always a chance to catch up so drop-ins are welcome!

Join resident and seasoned Pilates instructor, Kari Tannis, for a fun, easy-paced class.

Stretching may not be the most exciting part of working out, but doing flexibility work is just as important for a well-rounded fitness routine.  Incorporating some stretching, balance and core workout into your life will help improve flexibility, reduce tightness, and ultimately, make your daily living more efficient, safe and pain free.

 

Minimum of 2 participants, so please email Kari to RSVP in advance.  You can reach Kari at karitannis@gmail.com.

Update:

For several months you may have noticed at 8 a.m. - 9 a.m. on Tuesday and Thursday there are some brave soles in the pool performing Tai Chi with Betty Smith.  This group has now graduated and are no longer beginners.

For those that have never taken the beginners class, and are interested, I have been asked to start another for those that want to learn and catch up to the Tues. and Thursday group.   I will consider doing this if I get at least ten people who register by going to bettyscrystalclear@live.com.  Time TBD but most likely I would do this at 10:15 - 11:15 on Tuesday and Thursdays.   Fee is $2.00 per class.  This is a fun way to exercise and  control your balance in the water.  We are only in shallow end of pool.  Please let me know if you are interested.

This is a class of not only balance but dedication, for men and women.  Tai Chi is easy yet you get a full body workout.

I am considering starting the beginner’s class in May, so get on the list now.
