About the event
Getting crafty for hours is the ultimate but can be a drain on the body. Chair Yoga for Knitters takes simple yoga stretches and makes them accessible to any level of crafter. No matter if you are a knitter, spinner, weaver or crocheter these simple movements keep your body in tip top condition. We will play with simple movements that use a chair, so you don’t have to move far from where you knit, spin, weave, or crochet. Although these crafts are generally considered low-impact, the repetitive movements associated with these activities can cause injuries over time. We have used our yoga expertise to develop a series of simple stretches and mindfulness exercises to prevent these common maladies. Play with simple yoga stretches and breathing techniques to enhance your making. No matter the craft or level you are at, these yoga practices can help you craft for longer.
