Chair Yoga or Seated yoga with Monique
The chair yoga program is designed for the elderly population, -to become more active. It improves strength, flexibility, and posture.
A typical class starts with an activation: a series of movements designed to loosen the body, enhance circulation, and free the body from tension and fatigue. We then move into an EBR: Energy Block Release sequence, a Dru Yoga hallmark.
These unique and specifically designed sequences work to dissolve areas of tight or blocked energy in your physical, mental, emotional, and subtle bodies. They combine movement, breath, and positive thought to bring a greater feeling of well-being. Therapeutic postures and sequences follow the EBR, finishing the class with relaxation.
Each posture has its specific beneficial effects on different parts of the physical and subtle bodies. When posture work is combined with the conscious direction of the breath and awareness, the benefits are multiplied on all levels.
The quality of the breath improves which in turn helps to relieve stress and improve circulation, sleeping patterns often get better and feelings of fatigue will lessen. Each class concludes with a Dru Relaxation. This is an opportunity for the body and mind to rest and re-balance.
