What is Chair Yoga?
Chair Yoga is a gentle, accessible form of yoga designed just for you! Practiced while seated in a chair, this class adapts traditional yoga poses to ensure comfort and ease, with options for every BODY. You don’t need to get down on the floor, making it ideal for all ages, abilities, and experience levels.
​
In this class, you’ll improve your mobility, balance, strength, and mindfulness in a way that feels supportive and comfortable. You can practice the entire class from your chair, or choose to stand for a few balance poses using the back of your chair for support.
​
Mikola will guide you through each pose, helping you find the version that works best for YOU and YOUR BODY on any given day. No matter where you are in your journey, this class is all about adapting to your needs and helping you feel your best.
​
Never tried yoga before? No problem! Our class is the perfect starting point for beginners. With clear explanations for every pose, you’ll quickly build confidence and comfort in your practice. As you continue to attend, you might even find yourself incorporating these uplifting exercises into your daily life at home.

What People Say
A very subtle way of using muscles without overtaxing. I left feeling more relaxed and positive.
- Robyn, Chair Yoga
I felt sore at the beginning in mountain pose, so I took my time trying different strength poses that were explained so well and made appropriate by Mikola. By the end I felt so good :-)
- Bette, Chair Yoga
A nice stretch and centering. Go at your own pace, gently but pushing your own limits
- Judy, Chair Yoga
When can I join?
We welcome you to join us at any time through out the year! While the classes do operate on a 9 week term basis, there is no requirement to come every week... just come by when you can, to feel the benefits of chair yoga. The more often you come, the quicker you will learn and the more you will reap the amazing benefits of a regular yoga practice. So don't wait! Join NOW!​​​​​​
Can I come with a carer?
We are inclusive and welcoming of all abilities and we understand that you might need some extra support at class. You are most welcome to bring a carer or support person with you! Your support person will join the class with you as a participant for only an additional $5. It is a wonderful experience to share the class with your support person and they may come to love it just as much as you do!
​
What if I'm sick and can't make it to class?
Your knowledge of our regular sequences, poses and your own body's needs will grow over time, yet there is no requirement to memorise anything from week to week! And if you need to miss a class for any reason every now and then... don't stress! Mikola guides you step by step through every class. And if you are sick or have an injury you need to listen to your body and respect it's needs.
