This is a gentle form of yoga that can be done while sitting. It can improve your flexibility, concentration and strength, while boosting your mood, and reducing stress and joint strain. Taught by Megan Do Nascimento: She is a Philadelphia native who studied dance at the High School for Creative and Performing Arts and Spanish at Temple University.
