All you need is a chair!
All you need is a chair! BreatheFIT is the first component of our Mind + Body Class.
With BreatheFIT all you need is a chair to embark on a daily practice journey. We also suggest what is called a plyo-cube used in fitness, however starting with the chair you can always progress to the plyo-cube when you are ready
This unique approach to wellness is specifically designed to be done seated, allowing you to effortlessly integrate it into your daily routine. By utilizing a chair BreatheFIT helps you shift your posture and expand your body creating a foundation of strength and stability.
Seated practice offers numerous benefits, enabling you to cultivate a deeper sense of awareness and connection within your body and posture. It also resets the parasympathetic ease while keeping you alert and active. As you sit comfortably in a chair, you have the opportunity to bring attention to your posture and make subtle adjustments, promoting proper alignment and relieving tension in your muscles and joints.
The chair becomes a tool for embodiment, providing support and stability as you explore breathwork, movement, and mindset. It invites you to fully inhabit your physical form and explore the depths of your inner landscape. Whether it's engaging in core exercises, practicing deeper conscious channel breath, or experiencing the power of breathing awareness, the chair becomes a trusted companion on your journey of self-discovery and transformation.
By embracing the simplicity of a chair, BreatheFIT empowers you to incorporate this practice into your daily life, regardless of your physical abilities or limitations. It serves as a gentle reminder that transformation and growth can be found anywhere
The BreatheFIT daily practice is an inner journey that begins with just 3-5 minutes of your time each day, and it can evolve into 30 minutes or even 60 minutes. By dedicating the short but impactful and efficient period to yourself, you can unlock the potential for profound healing, growth, and self-discovery.
As you engage in this daily practice, you create a powerful feedback loop between your mind and body, fostering deep connection and enhancing your ability to navigate work and life challenges with a sense of positivity and confidence.
BreathFIT's carefully crafted techniques and exercises are designed to entrain your brain and body, enabling you to tap into your innate capacity for self-correction. With each breath and intentional movement, you activate your body's natural healing mechanisms, by releasing the energy of stress, thus promoting a state of inner bounce back capacity. This daily practice empowers you to respond to life's demands with clarity, resilience, and calm, cultivating a sense of well-being that extends far beyond the moments you spend in practice.
In just a few minutes each day, BreatheFIT revives your entire being with renewed energy, focus, and vitality.

My name is Karen “kk” Taylor. I have a great passion for keeping people moving no matter their age. Moving can mean movement in the body but also mean movement in the mind and brain.
I have been involved in Nia for 7 years, TaijiFit for 5 years, and BreatheFIT for 3 years. I so enjoy sharing this work and seeing the benefits to the students. Releasing tension suppresses inflammation in the body and helps sooth and heal the nervous system. All systems of the body benefit from this release. Movement keeps our muscles strong and supple, joints lubricated, and our balance providing safety. Teaching a class with breath work (BreatheFIT), Moving meditation (TaijiFIT), and guided visualization, creates a body ready have a great daily life full of activities.
