Best things about Chair Yoga on Zoom:

1. You can come in your PJs
2. You can have your cats and see everyone else’s animals strutting across the screen
3. It’s accessible for those who may not be able to get to a class or leave the house without assistance or for another reason
4. It’s warmer in winter being indoors 🥶
5. You can use your own chair that you’re comfy in
6. Sometimes classes are free & you can join from anywhere in the world
7. Someone in your class may randomly put a little penguin on the screen when you’re trying to teach and you might just not be able to stop yourself from giggling 🤭 🐧

There are so many things I love about teaching online Chair Yoga classes. Can you think of any more? ⬇️

I got an email this week which had a question in it that I have heard many times over the years – and one that I understood all too well! I wanted to share my answer with you.

People often say to me “I have an injury, I’m not flexible or I have a disability - can I still be a Yoga teacher and do this training?”

The answer is – YES, for sure!

I know where they’re coming from. When I first came to Chair Yoga, I had injuries and lots of tightness too. I honestly felt like I could never do a Yoga training because I wasn’t flexible or good enough. 😢

But then I learned - that’s exactly what Chair Yoga is for – making yoga accessible no matter what body you’re in.

And that includes us as teachers.

There is SO much more to teaching than just striking poses on a mat.

I think being real is more important than being “perfect”.People feel less intimidated and relate so much better to teachers with normal bodies that might have some challenges – just like them.

AND your challenges are your gifts. They help you understand and relate to people, to get where they’re coming from or even how they might be feeling.

So, if you’ve been thinking about doing a chair, mat or any Yoga training - don’t let anything stand in your way!

You’re real, and you’re perfect just the way you are.

Our upcoming training details are at www.getfitwhereyousit.com.au/liveteachertraining if you’re interested to join us!

Next round starts on Saturday! 🙌

I’ve been teaching a lot of Mat Yoga in gyms these past few weeks and something I love doing is creating a mat practice and then adapting it for the chair exactly as it is for the Chair Yoga classes.

It’s a great practice for me as a teacher to have to be creative in the moment and try and recreate the flow and some of the poses which are a bit more challenging to adapt - but doing this regularly is showing me you literally CAN do everything from the mat on the chair - even poses like tiger curls and scorpion and more!

This is a bit of a simpler flow though, which I filmed while I was recently in the USA and had been at a Yoga convocation where there was lots of sitting in meditation for hours. Felt so good to move my body in this way so I thought I’d do one both on the mat and the chair so I could do it twice 🤣

Give it a try and see how you feel! Let me know below if you like it and what sort of poses you would like to see me show how to adapt on the chair ⬇️

And if you would like to learn how to do this yourself and teach Chair Yoga to others DM me to find out more info about our Chair Yoga Trainings!
