Yoga for Anyone

About This Class

This 31-minute chair yoga class with Mike Nader is designed for anyone, regardless of experience or mobility level, offering a thoughtfully complete practice that touches every major category of yoga pose. Starting seated with Ujjayi breath work to calm and balance the nervous system, the class progresses through standing forward folds, dynamic Warrior One, downward facing dog at the chair, triangle and side angle variations, balance challenges including Warrior Three and hip-opening sequences, standing twists, and twisting triangle — all using the chair as an accessible prop for support. The floor sequence closes with dynamic bridge pose, a supine knee-hug, and a restful Savasana. Core engagement, spinal length, and shoulder mobility are recurring themes, and the instructor frames the practice as surprisingly challenging despite its accessible format. The class ends with a guided relaxation encouraging stillness of mind and breath, making it equally valuable for stress relief and gentle conditioning.
