“The majority of my corporate class students had no previous exposure to the practice of yoga. Beginning their practice in a chair was such a wonderful way to allow them to start on their journeys! I must say that I found chair yoga to be a wonderful new opportunity to bring yoga to those who may have otherwise shied away from it.
I certainly was not surprised at the transition from chair to mat as all of the students in my class were extremely receptive and ready to delve into the world of yoga right from the very beginning. With that said, the transition was quite seamless and many students reported that they felt more comfortable practicing yoga on the mat versus the chair. I think they were surprised at the ease of the transition.
Over the time that I have worked with this particular group, I have witnessed transformations in so many of them. There is a very tangible positive energy within the office and among those who participate in the program.”
