LWCC YOGA
Improve your Balance
Classes are designed to take action to keep your balance in good shape. Good balance requires the coordination of many different systems in our body – the central nervous system, inner ear (vestibular system), eyes (ocular system), bones and joints. Exercises include various yoga poses (no experience necessary), dual task training such as balancing in tree pose and counting backwards. Postures include getting up and down on your yoga mat: seated, standing, reclined and on hands & knees. The goal is to improve our stability, mobility, coordination, concentration, regulation of breath control, confidence, and freedom. 55+

Chair Yoga
Chair Yoga is a safe and gentle form of yoga performed while seated or using a chair for balance. Yoga and fitness exercises that gently target areas of weakness, tension, chronic pain, inflammation, reduced mobility, and/or difficulty standing for prolonged periods of time. Chair Yoga may be the perfect practice to help you slowly develop balance and stability while improving strength and flexibility regardless of age.
Instructor: Cathy Jaman
Gentle Yoga
Gentle Yoga classes are a slower pace which is less intense than traditional yoga classes, thereby allowing participants to pay close attention to their body's sensations and limitations.
Gentle yoga emphasizes conscious breathing (pranayama) in order to calm the nervous system and promote relaxation. A slower tempo allows for deeper stretching that can help to release tension, increase flexibility and improve balance.
Must be able to be get up and down from floor as well as be on knees, standing up as well as lying down unassisted/no chair.
