Join us for a calm, accessible chair yoga session designed for people who find it difficult to get up and down from the floor. This class suits older adults, carers and parents who want gentle exercise with a focus on mobility and balance.
You will be guided through gentle, seated movements that focus on improving flexibility, mobility and posture without the need to lie on the floor. The pace is relaxed and supportive, ideal for beginners and those with limited mobility.
Expect a warm, inclusive atmosphere where small modifications are offered and everyone is encouraged to work within their comfort zone. This session is suitable for seniors, people recovering from injury and busy parents seeking a low-impact workout and stress relief.
Claire from LV Chair Yoga Australia presents the class with clear, reassuring instruction and attention to safety. The sessions blend breath work, gentle strengthening and balance exercises, making it a great option for improving everyday movement and confidence.
Classes are held on Wednesdays from 14:30 to 15:30 during school terms. The format is a weekly 60-minute seated yoga session, running only during NSW public school terms as advertised by the library.
- Suitable for adults and seniors
- Wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle
- Small fee applies: $3.00 per session
The class is conducted entirely from the seat of a chair, with options to stand briefly for balance work if comfortable. Emphasis is on functional movement, posture improvement and safe progression so parents and carers can feel confident bringing family members along.
Sessions take place at Chester Hill Library and Knowledge Centre, located in Chester Hill, NSW 2162. The library setting is friendly and familiar for local families and seniors, making it easy to combine a class with other library visits.

Public transport and local roads provide straightforward access to the centre; check local timetables for buses stopping near Chester Hill. If you drive, allow a few extra minutes for parking during busy times and school pick-up periods.
Classes run only during NSW public school terms, so sessions pause during school holidays. Please check the library program or call the library for term dates and current schedules before attending.
If you have any medical conditions, recent surgeries or concerns about physical activity, consult your healthcare provider before attending. The instructor can offer gentle modifications, but they cannot provide medical advice.
