I teach a form of Chair Yoga that I adapt to the students' needs. Working with the continuum from active adults to frail, disabled and memory impaired adults. This involves communicating through movement. Chair yoga sparks joy and helps build better balance, ability to stand up, using breath to fuel and lift the mind, body and spirit. Provider of Yoga and Chair Yoga services to private clients, older adult centers, adult day services and NORCs in New York City. Most recently working with ProjectFIND’s Clinton Older Adult Center in Manhattan remotely over ZOOM and now in-person classes.
