Jennings See all presenters Move with EaseWhat if a chair could become a gateway to freedom, creativity, and joy? In this retreat, the chair is more than a seat—it’s a steady, supportive partner that invites you to move with confidence, curiosity, and ease. Together, we’ll explore gentle movement, mindful stillness, and shared laughter in a welcoming, inclusive space that honors every body and every season of life.This weekend is an invitation to slow down, soften tension, and reconnect with yourself and others. Designed intentionally for adults of all ages and movement abilities, this mind-body-heart reset offers accessible practices that nurture clarity, compassion, and a sense of belonging. Expect a warm, encouraging atmosphere where you can show up exactly as you are.Throughout the weekend, we’ll cultivate self-awareness and renewed vitality through:Chair yogaChair danceGuided meditationJournalingBreathworkWhether you’re seeking grounding, personal insight, or a more joyful relationship with movement, this retreat welcomes you with open arms.
