Residents at Magnolia at 9th Senior Apartments in San Bernardino, CA, and Portofino Villas in Pomona, CA, are participating in weekly yoga classes with instructor Arostegui. Hot temperatures didn’t limit their ability to get their fitness routine completed this month.
Chair Yoga is a type of yoga that has been modified to allow participants to perform all of the required exercises from a seated position. It allows seniors and those living with disabilities to reap the benefits of yoga without risking their safety.
For older adults, chair yoga brings additional benefits. It also helps with chronic pain and symptom management for health problems including arthritis, depression, coronary artery disease, diabetes, and a variety of autoimmune conditions.
