A live, online short-course facilitated by Jivana Heyman, with guest presenters: Rodrigo Souza, Melissa Shah, Karen James & Jacquie Sunny Barbee

Join Jivana Heyman, the founder and director of Accessible Yoga, and guests, for a 9-part online short-course that will explore how to practice and teach yoga safely in a chair. This course will cover all the fundamental elements of a holistic practice, including exploration of asana as well as pranayama, mudra, mantra and meditation.

You’ll learn how adapting the practice can offer the same physical—as well as emotional, mental, and spiritual—benefits.

In this course, you'll discover:

How to build strength and flexibility through chair yoga asana practices
Nervous system regulation and relaxation through skillful breathing exercises
How to cultivate focus through meditation
Plus our special guests will share their specialized knowledge and experience of chair yoga, including wheelchair yoga and yoga for those with disabilities, chair yoga for older adults, chair yoga as an accessible container for the subtle practices of yoga, and mixed-level teaching incorporating chairs for seated and standing, through discussion and sample practices

Whether you are a teacher eager to make your classes more accessible by offering options with a chair or a student seeking ways to adapt your asanas, this online short-course will offer insight on how to begin, enhance, and grow your accessible yoga toolkit using a chair.
