Chair Yoga Is More Than Sitting and Stretching

The chair gives you support, but the practice can still help you move your whole body, build functional strength, improve mobility, and feel calmer.

I’ll encourage you to listen to your body and choose the options that feel right for you. There is no pressure to keep up, perform, or make your body look like anyone else’s.

This is yoga for real life, real bodies, and real people.

 
 

Hi, I’m Krista.

Yoga teacher Krista Oakes smiling.

I’m an experienced yoga and meditation teacher, and one of the things I do best is help people feel comfortable, seen, and accepted.

Many of my students came to me believing they were too stiff, too old, too out of shape, or not the “yoga type.” My role is not to make everyone perform the same poses. My role is to help you discover what is possible in your body and support you as you build strength, confidence, and consistency.

You are welcome exactly as you are.

You Can Practice from Home Without Practicing Alone

Online yoga can still feel warm, personal, and connected.

My live students are not anonymous faces on a screen. They are part of a community. We notice one another, encourage one another, laugh together, and celebrate the small changes that come from showing up consistently.

When you’re ready, you’ll also have the opportunity to join me for a free live online class and experience the community for yourself.

You don’t have to do this alone.
