Aprašymas

All of the benefits of yoga and Pilates - seated and supported.

Health issues, ageing and body image are just a few of the barriers to starting or returning to an exercise regime. Chair Pilates and Yoga shows how effective exercise can be while seated on a chair, or using a chair as a prop.

Influenced by Pilates and yoga, the guided movements and activities will improve flexibility, strength, coordination, balance, posture and breathing and can reduce aches and pains. For those who find movement or exercise a challenge, performing chair exercises can produce a sense of achievement, instil confidence and restore self-esteem at a time when morale might well be low.

Though seated exercise has traditionally targeted an older demographic, the exercises and activities in this book are not just for those in later life. They are suitable for all, from young sedentary office workers to athletes recovering from injury, and include modifications to fit your ability.

Featuring a range of exercises that target different parts of the body, this comprehensive exercise manual can be dipped into for just five minutes during an office lunch break, or it can become a twenty-minute daily commitment.

We can all benefit from simple and supported movement, and this is the perfect place to start.
