Yoga for Cancer - Chair Based (Huntingdon)

Overview

This class is offered free to anyone over 18, living in Huntingdonshire, recovering from or living with a cancer diagnosis or who is a carer of someone living with a diagnosis. Chair based yoga is a wonderful practice that modifies yoga poses so they can be practiced while seated in a chair. These modifications make yoga accessible to people who: don’t want to stand for long periods of time, are recovering from illness, surgery or injury, lack mobility, are overweight, or anyone who would just rather practice yoga sitting down! Chair yoga can improve strength, flexibility, and concentration, while boosting mood, and reducing stress and joint strain. We will practice breathwork, poses to stretch and strengthen the body, and relaxation techniques to calm the mind. I have completed specialist yoga teacher trainings in cancer and long term illness, back health, and trauma informed restorative practice, so my classes will be suitable for most people and I encourage my students to work with their bodies and how they are feeling today. To book, please see: https://www.hccn.org.uk/ or come along to Bradbury house on Friday.
