Enjoy a gentle, accessible yoga class designed around a chair and plenty of support. This session is ideal for parents, grandparents and carers who want a calm, low-impact way to keep fit during the school term while staying close to home and routines.
Each session focuses on slow, controlled movements, breath work and simple seated stretches that improve mobility and posture. You can expect a friendly, unhurried class pace that prioritises safety and comfort.
The teacher will guide participants through breathing techniques, gentle seated twists, shoulder and neck releases and basic standing support poses using the chair. These exercises help reduce tension, increase flexibility and improve balance — great for busy parents who need low-impact exercise.
Classes are welcoming and social, often attracting other local parents and older adults. You’ll leave feeling refreshed, relaxed and better able to manage daily tasks like school drop-offs or afternoons at the playground, while benefiting from the wellbeing advantages of gentle yoga and community connection.
This is a weekly class held on Thursdays during NSW school terms, running for one hour. The advertised time is 12:50–13:50; sessions are structured to suit mid-day schedules so parents can fit yoga into their routine between school runs and errands.
The session suits people with limited mobility or anyone who prefers not to move onto the floor. Participants use stable chairs for seated poses and for support during standing exercises. The class is deliberately low-impact and accessible to beginners.
What to bring:
- Comfortable clothing you can sit and move in
- A water bottle to stay hydrated
- Any small personal support like a cushion
The class meets at Campsie Library and Knowledge Centre, a short walk from Campsie shops and public transport. The library setting offers a calm indoor space, ideal on cooler or wet days.
Facilities at the library include accessible toilets and nearby parking, making drop-off and pick-up straightforward for parents running school runs. The venue is family-friendly and easy to find using local maps or the library’s information desk.
If you need assistance with access or have mobility equipment, contact the library ahead of your first visit so staff can help with arrangements. The setting is intentionally supportive for older adults and carers attending with children.
This program runs during NSW public school terms; please check current term dates on the NSW Department of Education website to confirm specific weeks. Classes may pause during school holidays and public holidays, so checking before you travel is recommended.
If you have existing health conditions, recent injuries or are pregnant, consult your GP before attending and let the instructor know so they can offer suitable modifications. The class is low-impact but safety and personal comfort are priorities.
Bookings are encouraged where offered because places can fill quickly; bring the $3 fee on arrival if you haven’t pre-paid. The library may update scheduling, so a quick phone call before your first session helps avoid disappointment.
Cost: $3 per class, payable on the day or via any booking system the library provides. The small fee helps keep the program running and accessible to the local community.
To book or check availability, use the library’s booking link or phone the council library service for the most up-to-date information. Advance booking is recommended for the first session so staff can welcome you and explain any arrival details.
If you’re juggling school pickups, look for classes that fit your weekly routine; this mid-day timeslot is chosen to suit parents and carers. Bringing a friend can make the class a pleasant, social way to keep active and support your wellbeing.
