About this Event

Discover how yoga can enhance fitness programming for older adults by supporting strength, balance, flexibility and relaxation.

This interactive workshop is designed for fitness professionals who want to expand their toolkit by incorporating yoga—both mat and chair-based—into their sessions with older adults. You’ll explore how yoga complements traditional fitness approaches, especially in areas such as joint mobility, breath awareness, and stress reduction.

Through a blend of presentation, guided practice, and discussion, you’ll gain practical insights into adapting yoga for older populations, using both mat and chair-based techniques. You’ll also learn how to integrate yoga principles into fitness settings to create more inclusive, supportive, and effective sessions.

The workshop includes:

  • A presentation on the benefits of yoga for older adults
  • Guided chair and mat yoga practices
  • Practical strategies for integrating yoga into fitness classes
  • Time for Q&A and reflection

You’ll also learn about opportunities for further training, including Chair Yoga Teacher Training, to deepen your skills and expand your professional offerings.

Book your place today to learn how yoga can transform your approach to fitness for older adults—and how you can lead the way in creating more balanced, mindful, and accessible movement experiences.
