"Chair Yoga" is a gentle practice in which postures are performed while seated and/or with the aid of a chair. Chair yoga classes typically target those with physical disabilities or aging men/women who find a typical yoga session too challenging. It is also a great form of yoga for beginners or anyone who wants to focus on a gentle practice.

Singer, songwriter, audio-engineer, Grace Leckey is Bunnell’s Alaska Artist in Residence from November 1st – 24th. During her residency she will host communal singing workshops, and perform a concert through Bunnell Arts by Air on Friday, November 21st, 2025.
Her “original music promotes peace and justice while exploring the intersections of mysticism through nature, stewardship in community, and hope in the midst of grief.” She writes: “I believe in communal song as a form of healing, protest, and mobilization, and I believe in recording arts as a means to amplify and extend the reach of our stories.”
While in residency, Leckey will offer Sonic Art Workshops for Homer Middle and High School choir students on November 11th & 12th. She will also offer two workshops for the public held at Bunnell Street Arts Center:
Community Singing Workshop – Friday, November 14th, 6pm – 7:15pm Participate in the revision process of Leckey’s new piece exploring the climate crisis.
