Activities – Weekly Yoga

Yoga any one!

Each week during our yoga classes, my teaching focuses on building strength and flexibility, all from the safety of a chair! increased range of motion is accomplished by stretching the muscles and restoring movement in joints that might have been put into retirement! By moving our joints, they actually become more lubricated,which allows our movements to become easier. It’s kind of like oiling the Tin Man in the wizard of Oz! In short period of time he becomes less creaky, more mobile and stable, and was much happier! I see the same with my residents at Bee Hive; a new found freedom and often

a surprise when they see an arm, hand, shoulder, ankle or leg move in a way that hasn’t for a while! Athlete or not, flexibility is the answer! Sue comes to Bee Hive every Thursday and does her yoga class with out residents, the results have been proven with our residents.
