Description
Chair mobility is adaptive for all! It can also be challenging in different ways that may be unexpected!
It can be solely practiced within a chair. However, our practice will also use a chair as a prop to help with balance and strength building and stamina or help with transitioning in and out of postures. Using chairs as supportive tools in standing postures can help provide ease and accessibility to postures that may otherwise be intimidating or inaccessible. Some standing sequences may be more accessible than seated ones.
This is a pop up class and will be facilitated by Shannon
