The Incredible Chair: A Series with Deborah Saliby
January 9, 2025 @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
Thursdays in January from noon – 1:15 pm in person
A special in-person series with Deborah Saliby
starts Jan 9th
Our incredible yoga chair can help you experience stability, and give you opportunities to build your strength. The chair can make some postures more demanding because it encourages us to practice with true alignment. And, at the same time, it can make other postures more relaxing because you can rest on it.
You can use the chair to help you with your standing poses, back extensions, forward bends, twists and inversions. This series will teach you how.
The simple but incredible chair gives us access to yoga when we are stiff, or injured sick. And, anytime we need some relaxation, the chair is there for us.
Traveling? The chair in the airport or even the airplane will help you feel better. Practicing at work? The chair is there to to relieve pain and give you a little upliftment.
Did you know that the chair can do all this? It can! At any age, the chair is an amazing tool. Whether you are strong or stiff, flexible or not, the chair is there to support, educate and encourage you.
Each 75-minute session will focus on specific types of poses using the chair. You will get the most out of the classes if you attend them all.
We hope you will join us for this dynamic and interesting series in-person at our studio in Berkeley. You will be amazed at all the ways we can use this chair. Deborah is only in the Bay Area a few times a year, so please carve out the time to join us!
Who is this program for? Anyone who is curious about new ways to use the chair to practice Iyengar Yoga. This workshop is best suited for people who have done at least three months of Iyengar Yoga with a Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher.
