Exercise and yoga can be hard on the joints, especially if you are experiencing natural wear and tear.

However it is so important to keep mobility and movement in the joints.

Encouraging full mobility in the joints helps to decrease the risk of injury by building strength and supporting the muscles better.

Instead of holding difficult poses for long periods or fast movements that put too much pressure on the joints we will concentrate on gentle movement and stretching.

This gentle sustained motion can also lubricate the joints and reduce swelling.

Chair yoga is also an option if floor work is difficult to begin with and we will work up to creating flexbility in the hips and knees.

I can promise that you will be feel lighter, more open and more relaxed after some stretching, deep breathing and meditation. My intention is to gently improve your quality of life through sustained gentle movement.
