Workshop 2 of the Adaptive Teaching Series - you can also register for JUST this workshop.

Chair yoga is a powerful, practical method for building strength, mobility, balance, and body awareness in a way that meets people where they are. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to design chair-based classes that include both seated movement and optional standing work using the chair for support.

We’ll cover foundational chair yoga principles: safety and setup, pacing, and how to teach functional movement patterns. You’ll practice sequencing with a clear template, learn adaptation strategies for different abilities in the same room, and explore cueing that works with and without demonstration. This workshop also translates beyond yoga and can be used to adapt a variety of movement instruction, including strength training.
