Most of us (prior to becoming zen masters😎) carry stress in our bodies (which is how our bodies keep score...). I tend to hold mine in my neck and shoulders. From watching and listening to my students, that seems to be a common storage place. My YouTube channel has shorter Focus on Neck & Shoulder practices if this 60-minute one is too long.

A 60-minute practice that focuses on the neck and shoulders. It also includes grounding practice, warming up the whole body, breathwork, and rest.

Most of the Chair Yoga practices on my YouTube channel are ten to twenty minute ones. This one, with a focus on your hips, is sixty minutes. I hope you / someone you love can benefit from it.

This chair yoga practice focuses on building hip strength and flexibility. It also includes movements to warm up the entire body, breathwork, and rest.

In addition to the several (at last count, 10) Chair Yoga classes I teach weekly in the Birmingham area, I'm also available for private sessions (up to 3 people) and special events (i.e. work retreats, reunions, professional conferences, showers, birthday parties, etc). If you don't see a day or time that works when you try to "Book a Class," please contact me:
