Online classes are back!

Our online health and wellbeing program had a break over the holiday season but has now officially returned.

Here is the 2022 class schedule:

  • Chair Yoga – Tuesday 12.30pm, Thursday 11am
  • Singing Lessons – Wednesday 10am
  • Modified Dance – Friday 10am

Not yet signed up to one of our enjoyable and relaxing classes? Improve your physical, emotional and social wellbeing in the comfort of your own home with one (or all!) of our online weekly classes. Choose from chair yoga, modified seated dance and singing lessons, all free for AWWNSW members.

Feel the joy of movement and rhythm during our modified dance classes.

We are often told to keep moving to stay healthy. But how do you physically do that if you have limited mobility, painful joints or lack of flexibility? The answer could be modified or seated dance.

Experience the benefits of dance and creativity in this weekly seated class. Dance can help improve flexibility, balance and strength while increasing confidence and a sense of wellbeing.

Our classes are run by trained and highly qualified educator, Jessica Connelly of Dance4Wellbeing. The classes are gentle, slow and include options so it can be enjoyed standing or sitting.

If you would like to enjoy the benefits of any of these classes from our online health and wellbeing program, contact our office at guild@warwidowsnsw.com.au or 02 9267 6577 for more information.

Take some time to for you and join our mindful Chair Yoga sessions.

Many of us are aware of the benefits of Yoga. From relaxation to improving strength, flexibility and heart health, the benefits of Yoga are well documented. But have you tried Chair Yoga?

Here are 6 reasons to try Chair Yoga.

  1. Chairs don’t take up much floor space
  2. Everyone has a chair or can access one
  3. It is surprising the quality and range of movement achieved from sitting in a chair
  4. Chairs are a great prop. Of course, you can sit, but if you are able, you can stand and use it to help you balance
  5. Chairs a great aid to posture
  6. Using a chair allows anyone to try Yoga

All you need is a sturdy chair and a bottle of water!

Run by Chair Yoga instructor Paula, these free sessions are accessible to all levels of flexibility and strength.

Why not sign up to our always fun and interactive Singing Lessons?

Singing is something that many love to do but often feel self-conscious about. This inclusive, caring group will give you an opportunity to learn a new skill and make new friends. Not only is singing fun, it improves lung function, can boost your immune system and can help promote positive feelings – even change your perception of pain! If you prefer to be seen and not heard, you can simply mute yourself on Zoom and feel free to stretch those vocal cords.

Aaron from Unlock Your Voice is our friendly and experienced singing coach who comes highly recommended by AWWNSW members and singing class participants.
