Mindful Movement for Stability & Strength

Move with confidence. Connect with your body.

This supportive movement class, based on the principles of yoga therapy, is for adults navigating neurological conditions and movement challenges.

Through mindful movement, breath awareness, and functional exercises, we explore practices that support balance, coordination, strength, mobility, body awareness, and confidence in everyday movement. Participants are encouraged to move at their own pace and discover ways to adapt movement to their individual needs and abilities.

Activities may include:

• Gentle yoga and mindful movement

• Balance and stability practices

• Functional strength and mobility exercises

• Breath awareness and breathing practices

• Body awareness and mindful attention

• Supported standing and seated movement

• Practices that encourage coordination and confidence

• Relaxation and restorative practices

Every movement can be adapted, with both seated and standing options available. No previous yoga experience is necessary.

I strive to make this a safe, welcoming, and supportive space where you are encouraged to explore, make choices, listen to your body, and participate in a way that feels right for you. There is no expectation to "keep up." The goal is to discover movement that feels accessible, empowering, and meaningful to you.

If you're living with Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, dementia, recovering from a stroke, or another neurological condition and aren't sure whether this class is right for you, please reach out to me via cell (860) 222-9892 or email: justbreatheyogawellness@outlook.com. I would love to chat.
