In Elista opened free yoga classes for the elderly

In the republican complex center of social services in Elista, special classes are held - yoga for the elderly. These trainings became possible thanks to the national project “Family”.

All interested pensioners are invited to free classes. No one here needs perfect flexibility or sports records. All movements are smooth, performed at a comfortable pace. The center explains that yoga is about taking care of yourself at any age.

The benefits of such practices are complex, say the organizers of the classes. Soft exercises return muscle tone, and joints – mobility. The pressure is normalized, the work of the heart and blood vessels improves, breathing becomes deeper. Breathing practices and meditation relieve anxiety, improve memory and give sound sleep.
