Great for prenatal ladies, those recently recovering from an illness, people who do not want to get down on the floor, back/knee challenges, wanting to increase strength, flexibility, better their balance, build bone density!
One of the flyers I pass out to my Beginners Yoga class. All of these poses have modifications, especially if there are lack of flexibility challenges, and people wanting to use the chair to assist down to the floor. Adaptive Beginning Yoga to help you gain your wellness goals! Gail Pickens-Barger, 409-727-3177
Depicted here are the kids version of the Salute to the Sun. Typically kids and young adults have the ability to do yoga poses with little or no modification. But, usually these groups do not have the awareness of their bodies, and as a teacher, you should still coach them to be aware of alignment, posture, and placement for a good overall safe yoga practice. Go YogaKiddos!
Sequence of poses for the salute to the sun with additionally demonstrating Warrior I, Reverse Warrior and Side Angle Pose. All done at the Beginner Level to help you toward your wellness goals. Even on the chair there are Advance, Intermediate and Beginning versions of poses.
Call Gail Pickens-Barger, Experienced Beginning Adaptive Yoga Teacher. If you don’t like my classes, or the fit isn’t just right, I will find you a class or teacher to help you on your path to your wellness goals. 409-727-3177. Thank you!

A little something about me. I am 58 years old, and have been teaching yoga now for over 18 years. My favorite class is to teach yoga to someone who is new to this unique exercise format. Either with the assist of using a Chair, or using the yoga mat, where we get up and down off the ground (I often use a chair in this format too!).
Beginners Yoga, and we use the chair in some of our balance poses, or assist in getting down onto the floor.
