Getting Up & Down More Easily

One of the most important things is to be able to get up and down both from a chair and also the floor. It may be simply that you’d like to lie on the floor once in a while or to know you can get up from a fall. Or, you’d like to get up and down from a chair without back pain. 
 
Come join Donna Hoover and I to explore making these transitions more enjoyable and comfortable, in the gentle ways we do.
