This gentle yoga class is designed for people living with COPD, asthma or other lung conditions. The focus is on strengthening the body and, in particular, the muscles around the lungs, through breathing exercises and movements that get the pulse up.
There is also room for soft, restful yoga stretches that help the body recover and unwind, and every session ends with relaxation. It is also a chance to meet others in a similar situation, share experiences and exchange tips.
Cathrine teaches the class. She has one of Denmark's longest and most thorough yoga trainings, through Dansk Yoga, and she teaches in a way that lets everyone take part. Lessons are in Danish. She also runs a restorative yoga workshop and a yoga nidra evening at AOF Amager this autumn and winter.
