Take Your Teaching to the Next Level

This is not your grandmother's chair yoga. This is active chair yoga. Sarah fell in love with chair yoga when she realized that the chair allowed her to go deeper into the poses. Your hamstrings may never feel as loose as when you progress through 4 levels of Pyramid in the chair. Come see how you can use the chair to deepen your yoga practice and make it more accessible for your students.
