Chair Yoga/Pilates Blend

Join Shannon Mathis of Life in Motion Gym for a chair based class that introduces the principles of pilates and yoga while remaining mostly seated. This is a low impact class where the focus is on core stability, balance, flexibility, breathing and strength. There will be some standing poses done at the chair at the end of the class for balance, but these can be modified as needed. The 4-week series is $15.00.
