The Family Centre are so happy to be brining Chair Yoga to the Murwillumbah Community Centre.

Chair Yoga & Coffee is coming to the Murwillumbah Community Centre!

You don't need to be flexible. You don't need to be fit. You don't need Lycra, a yoga mat, or any idea what you're doing. 🧘‍♀️☕

You just need to show up, sit down, and see how it feels.

Chair Yoga & Coffee is for you if you've thought about moving more but never found anywhere that felt right. It's for you if your body's a bit stiffer than it used to be, or your balance isn't what it was, or you've been managing pain and just want something gentle. It's for you if the mornings feel a bit long and you'd love an excuse to get out of the house and see some friendly faces.

There's no performance here. No mirrors, no judgement, no one watching to see if you're doing it "right." Every single movement has an easier option, and if you'd rather just sit and watch this week, that's completely fine too. Come as you are, move as much or as little as feels good, and stay for a proper cuppa and a chat afterwards.

That's honestly the whole point. Not to push you. Just to give you somewhere warm and welcoming to be, once a week, with people who are glad you came. 💛

The first session is free, then each session is only $10 including coffee - so there's really nothing to lose. Come and see for yourself.
