The focus of the course is on how to adapt Yoga practices more commonly utilised on a mat, for a chair.
The aim is to ensure attendees feel confident enough in delivering a chair yoga session as part of their current work schedule and/or interests.
Attendees will be able to explain variants in poses, breathwork practices and offer well rounded classes from a succinct planning model
Attendees will be assessed continuously throughout the course with verbal questioning and feedback. The style of teaching is to mentor each attendee to ensure success – any areas significantly in need of development will be encouraged to be attended to for a later pass date. Some written assignment will be expected – in planning for example – and a practical assessment in delivering a session safely will form the last week of the training.
