Experience the benefits of chair yoga, as certified yoga instructor Lisa Galico brings this workout to the library. This class is appropriate for beginners, as the focus is on range of motion while using a chair for support. You are invited to join the six-class session currently running, which is being held from 11 a.m. to noon Fridays. Cost is $10 per class, payable in advance and the session finishes Nov. 16.
