The chair exercises in this stretching and strengthening workout are low-impact movements performed while seated that are designed to improve flexibility, strength and cardiovascular health. 

We begin with a head-to-toe warm-up of dynamic and static exercises to stretch the muscles and connective tissue. Next, we’ll do a series of mild stretching and strengthening movements integrated with our breath. Midway, we’ll pause for a three-minute guided relaxation. Please consult your physician before beginning any new exercise regimen.

Get stronger and more flexible as you get your heart rate up! Classes are taught by American Council on Exercise (ACE) Group Fitness Instructor Mitchell G. Menik, who is also an ACE Senior Fitness Specialist and an ACE Orthopedic Exercise Specialist.
