This elective module explores the anatomy of the feet and ankles, common challenges, and how these areas impact balance, mobility and overall stability. You’ll learn how to protect and support these joints in Chair Yoga, with a focus on alignment, weight distribution and safe movement patterns.

You’ll be guided through chairasanas that can help to improve strength, mobility and circulation, and those we should be mindful of for conditions such as plantar fasciitis, arthritis and ankle instability. The module also highlights key precautions and adaptations to help you teach safely and inclusively.

By the end, you’ll feel more assured in your ability to support students with a range of needs, offering simple and effective practices that help them feel more stable, grounded and confident in their movement.
