...pects of yoga when teaching Yoga In chairs.

Expect students to interrupt class with questions

Most of your chair yoga students will be new to yoga to start out with, and will have lots of questions. They may have health issues to ask about, and they sometimes just dont get it the first time around.

Be patient with your students when they interrupt class with a question. Your chair yoga classes simply will not be as solemn as other classes.

Try to stay in touch with your students

Despite the fact that chair yoga classes are not as solemn and thoughtful as most, your students will take their commitment to you and the class very seriously. You probably will have a lot of continuity in the composition of the group. Also, they will often feel like they need to contact you if they will not be in class, especially if they know in advance that they will miss several classes.

Likewise, if they are not in class, they will usually be pleased that you took the time to check up on them. Doing so will also help keep people from drifting away. Of course, pay attention to how they react to having you checking up on them, and if they seemed to be annoyed by that, then back off. I will say that liz has not had a single case where she felt like she was being a pest.

Conclusion

teaching chair yoga to seniors is definitely a different experience than you have in most classes. However, if you pay attention to the things discussed above you will be much more successful in starting and maintaining chair yoga classes. In doing so you will be tapping into a huge yet underserved market and do a lot of good in the process.
