| 18 Aug 2014 | 03:07

    The Jefferson Township Recreation Department will continue its adult chair yoga program in the fall.

    Students will be instructed by certified instructor Linda Mangan in this very gentle class on Wednesday evenings from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Camp Jefferson Community Lodge, 81 Weldon Road, Lake Hopatcong, in 12 sessions beginning Sept. 10 and ending on Dec. 3 for $42 per person. There will be no class on Oct. 15.

    Attendees will learn modified yoga postures incorporating the same principles as a full yoga class but seated in a chair focusing on breathing techniques and stress management tools such as meditation and deep relaxation.

    Registration forms are available in the Jefferson Township Recreation Department, 81 Weldon Road (at Camp Jefferson), by calling 973-663-8404 to have a registration form mailed or emailed, or download the registration form from www.jeffersontownship.net, “Residents” tab, “Forms Center” to “Recreation Department”. Forms also are available in the display racks at the Municipal Building and Public Library. All paperwork and payment must be received in the Recreation Department prior to a student beginning the class as the instructor cannot accept registration forms and payment.

    There is a minimum of 15 people per class with a maximum of 30, and students should bring a bottle of water to each session.
