Wake Up Morning Wrist Free Yoga Flow
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- This short, full body yoga flow will get you warm, energised, and feeling good for the day ahead (without putting weight in your hands!).
It’s active enough to wake you up, but gentle enough to not completely wipe you out or stress you out before the day ahead.
We take a hands free modified vinyasa yoga flow, with uplifting standing balances and tension relieving forward folds and hip releases.
Suitable for beginners and all levels of practice.
In love and strength,
James 💜

Thank you Ruby, and everyone for your kind words!!
James, thank you for offering a variety of wrist free options! Your kind guidance has helped me commit to daily practice after injuries and surgeries. Thank you for this gift 🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure Karen, so happy to offer these flows to support you!
Your wrist free yoga classes are golden. I have a rotator cuff injury, but don’t want to stop yoga. Cheers from Anguilla 🇦🇮!
Another great practice! Wrist free warrior in the house 🙋🏻♀️🤺
Yes Miriam, I love that!
I agree James! The best way to start the day is with yoga...with you. Namaste.
Thanks Kim! Enjoy your weekend 💜
Thank you James! Despite the fact that my wrist has healed, I love this morning practice!
YAY! It's a good one to come back to, wrist injury or not, our wrists deserve breaks too! Thank you Anna!
I think this is the first male-led yoga practice I honestly enjoyed. Thanks for helping me out to practice during forearm muscle strain 👌🏽🙏🏽 namaste
You're so welcome Julia!
Thank you James, your classes are so inspiring and your smile is just infectiuous 🙂
Thank you so much! Glad you are feeling inspired!
Thank you so much! Your kindness and encouragement is so valuable during this time. I am dealing with bilateral arm injuries including tendonitis, and I felt very disheartened when I was told not to do any yoga exercises on my arms. But then I found your playlist for people with wrist/arm injuries! I hope I can still maintain the benefits of yoga while healing from my injuries. Thank you for thinking of those of us who need modifications!
My pleasure, I'm happy to be able to help during this difficult time for you. May you have a smooth recovery💜
I have been relying on your wrist free sessions during the last six months - thank you so much for keeping my body going ❤️
My pleasure, thank you Helen for continuing your practice!
Wow, I love your teaching style so much! I was smiling the whole way through, even in the difficult poses😊. Thank you James!💙
Tennis elbow stressing me out at the moment... so grateful for your classes, they can be challenging but are always engaging. So grateful I don't have to stop yoga 🙏
I'm also grateful you can keep practicing, thanks for continuing to nurture your body.
Thank you. Love this sequence to keep strength while recovering from a wrist fracture.
Glad it's been helpful Lexi, thanks for being here supporting yourself in your recovery.
I have just found you James and love your wrist free videos which I’m using as I nurse a shoulder injury actually. Thank you for your strong , heart centred teaching🙏
My pleasure, you are more than welcome. All the best with a smooth shoulder recovery!
One of my fave ways to start the day 😊 yoga police always cracks me up. AYCAB 😂
LOL thanks Jackie!
Good morning my yoga teacher I’m a new guy for doing yoga thank you so much for doing yoga
Thank you for being here and welcome to the community Bryant. I hope you enjoy the different practices and flows on this channel. If there is anything you need, please let me know.
Also love your teaching style, and how you integrate yoga with other modalities. Makes it feel like dance which I also love. And I am only doing wrist free yoga at this phase of my life which is how I found you. So appreciated.
Thanks for being here Reva, so glad these practices can support you during this time.
A perfect short yoga session to start a busy day. Another gem, James! Thanks again.

Love this flow! I use this when I have pain from a chronic illness
Yes, use it as often as you need Cheryl, it's here to support you during times of pain, recovery and injury. Thank you.
I have an injured thumb. This class was perfect. Energising and also relaxing at the end.
I'm grateful to hear this class was so beneficial for you Finlay! Thank you.
What a fabulous way to start the day - in my (little) conservatory, spring flowers in the garden, clouds scudding overhead, stretched and flowing, with no yoga police! Ready to begin the day.
Sounds wonderful Maggie!
Loved this. Would love to see more hands free yoga practices! Thanks!
Thanks Jennifer, working on it!

Loved this class so much and I was very excited to see that you have a whole playlist of wrist free videos. Thanks for helping us continue moving our bodies.
My pleasure Marianne, I'm glad to be able to support your recovery.
Another fantastic wrist free day! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! 🙏 Could we try a wrist free sun salutaion day? Keep them coming, your energy is so uplifting and genuine😄💪
Thank you. ❤️ I broke my knuckle in a fall and stumbled upon your videos to maintain my beginner but regular yoga practice. I appreciate your encouragement and style.

Thank you, so glad you are enjoying these practices! Thank you for being here.
Thank you very much for this wonderful yoga class, James! Namaste🙏🤗
You're very welcome!
Beautiful gentle flow James. Can't wait until you post more content!
Thanks Rachel, it's a work in progress, thank you for your continued support.
I just found your videos and can't tell you how happy I am to see you put out so many wrist free classes!! I have pretty bad compaction in my right wrist and my chiropractor told me to stop all pressure...even though I'd been doing yoga on my fists, I was still having a lot of trouble with night pain. I thought I'd have to give up yoga flows altogether and really didn't want to! Very grateful to see there are options for engaging flows that still can involve challenge without the wrist pressure!! Many thanks!
My pleasure Katie, I'm happy to have you here, welcome to the community💜
Hello, I'm new here. Was sent by my daughter who knows I'm wrist (and cardiac) challenged. What an extraordinary way to start my work day! I plan to join James on RUclips regularly. Thank you!
Welcome to the community Dawn, lovely to have you here, I'm very grateful your daughter led you here! Reach out if there is anything I can help you with💜
James, thanks for helping start my day the right way, feeling good in mind and body. Your videos are so easy to follow despite being new to your teachings and I cannot wait to share them with my friends and family 💕
Thank you Queenie, It's my pleasure.
Thank you so much for your wrist free yoga sessions. I enjoyed the integration of Qigong moves in particular to open up the chest.
So wonderful Hae, thank you for practising with me!
Thanks so much for the different wrist free classes. It’s nice to have a different mix of yoga and Thai Chi . Have wrist arthritis and trigger thumbs and can’t give up on my yoga. It truly is like my morning church.😘
🙏🏻 thank you Brenda
I just discovered your yoga classes and love them. I had finger surgery recently and needed some wrist free practice. Thank you for sharing your talents!
My pleasure Kathy!
Thank you so much for all your wrist-free videos, it's been such a struggle to do yoga at home since I injured my tendon! I feel challenged in a good way!
Lovely. Nicely refreshing, gently challenging and filling me with energy, calm, love. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it Gillian, thank you for being here, practicing with me.
Such a beautiful way to start the day... I LOVE your classes James!!
Thank you Kelly, I'm happy you are enjoying the classes!
"there's no yoga police" - I needed to hear this.
LOL yes sometimes we get a little rigid and strict with ourselves, we all need this reminder.
Yoga and Qigong. Now there is a powerful hybrid! As usual the imagery is magical. “No Yoga Police here” ha ha!
Another lovely Practice James! After recovery from wrist surgery using your amazing wrist free sequences. I now am recovering from a nasty cold and today was just enough. Thanks for making the start of my day beautiful 😍 xx
I wish you a smooth a fast recovery with that cold, be gentle and take care of yourself. May the rest of your day continue to be just as beautiful.
@@MoveWithJames thank you James I am sure it will be🧘🏼♀️💓
My fav of the series so far! Thank you James :))
My pleasure! Thank you!
hi there, I love your wrist free classes, I had a Trapeziotomy on my left hand and have an implant, 3 weeks ago, your classes have helped alot. thankyou, Im from the Uk but live in Montreal. take care, Deborah
You are so welcome Deborah, I'm so glad you are finding these flows so beneficial and supportive for you during this time of healing. Be gentle with yourself and I wish you a smooth recovery.
Thank you so much for this! I am a yoga teacher myself and have my first ever wrist injury. Wrist free yoga is an entirely new concept to me. I really appreciate your take on it! Favorite wrist free practice so far! Namaste 🙏
You're welcome Jessenia, be sure to take care of those wrists💜
@@MoveWithJames Thank you so much, I will!!
Shanti, Shanti, Shanti💚💚💚. Namaste 🙏
Thank you Mary! 💜
thanks for that james! this was a wonderful break for my wrists!
Great to hear! Thank you for practising with me.
This is lovely way to start the day, especially with the energy you provide for us.
Thanks Heather, appreciate you being here in this community!
I practised with you after an operation on my hand in 2022 and you saved my life as there are not alot of options for wrist free that I enjoy, I got better but have arthritis in the other wrist, (sods law), and was dispondent, then I remembered your practice and feel very happy to have practicised with you today, thankyou, and I will try the Qijong also, thankyou I love your channel, being an ex pat in Montreal, I feel so happy to be part of your practice, take care Deborah xx
Thank you Deborah, I'm grateful these practices have continued to support you and your body during this time!
Love this class perfect in every way for the morning 🙏
Yay, I'm so grateful you found it so helpful to start your morning!
I've recently discovered your channel when searching for wrist free yoga. I practice mostly Ashtanga, but I have a shoulder and elbow injury and had problems with my wrists before. This class is exactly what I needed today, after a Full Primary yesterday. Thank you so much, Namaste!
My pleasure Aspho, thank you for being here!
I just love your flows James, my favourite teacher! Greetings
Thank you Sophia, so grateful you are benefitting from these flows💜
Over 60...and just loving how you can make us smile at our 'wobbles' and get stronger to flow into the fiery friendly dragon poses! I truly appreciate all the videos (the wrist free ones due to computer work for too many years...), love the boat poses!! The abs are slowly showing again! As much as I would love to join others with regards to you creating more videos for us 😁, I can actually satisfy my daily 'workout' and finding 'peace' when combining two of your videos....plus, I am french speaking also, so I did find one in France that has a bit of your attitude, so not too serious but true 'workout's for strength and peace....healing inside and out, my mother passed away a few weeks ago, and it was not a peaceful journey for her...your videos have helped me deal with her suffering and hopefully will slowly take away the sadness and anxiety I feel from being so helpless during her final journey.....Many many thanks, I am so very happy that you are helping all of us! Will remain patient for more...
Thank you for your beautiful comment, I'm so grateful to be able to offer these flows for you. I'm always surprised at the depth of support they provide for people in different situations in life. Thank you for sharing about your mother, and thank you for looking for something to support you as you navigate this time too. A pleasure to have you in this space.
yaaaaaaay I'm a warrior!!! lol It's Friday woooohooo!!!!!!!!!!!! last day of the work week!! :)
Again fantastic! You are a gift! Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Hurt my wrist so this was great! Thank you!!!
My pleasure Vivian, glad it was supportive.
Thank you, Namaste 🙏
You are so welcome Tanya!
Thank you again for this wonderful flow! Yoga is always the best way to start the day :) and with your videos ist’s even better.
Aww Regina, thank you, that's so wonderful to hear!
Thanks so much James - I just broke my 4th metacarpal right hand and my first thought was how will I do yoga now??? So glad I found you & and your wrist free videos .Bless you 😄
You're so welcome! Welcome to the community💜 I wish you a fast recovery.
Was so good. Exactly what I needed this morning. Thank you!
That's wonderful to hear! You're so welcome!
Thank you James for your videos, I have wrist tendonities on both wrists and I'm used to practise everyday so you are making me superrr happy 😁
My pleasure Doris, we must take care of our wrists, glad you found these videos to support you!
Loved this one! So playful and fun!
Yay!! Thanks Cecilia
Just discovered your wrist-free classes and am so grateful. I’ve been doing heavy landscaping after my office job and my problem wrist has really been complaining - these are a wonderful balance to all of the shoveling, digging, and other hard work I’ve been doing lately. Thank you!!
My pleasure Arielle, your wrists certainly get a workout, happy you found this space, to move without additional tension for those wrists!
Absolutely love these short morning classes. Keep them coming!!!
Same as @susanne I am recovering from rotator cuff surgery and your wrists free classes have been my rock and my saviors!! More more more 😍🥰
Hi Malena, That's great to know, I'll keep them coming 💜
Soooo good. More of these please ❤. I found it great as a mid point break in my “sitting” day! cheers from YOW Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks Gabrielle, glad you found it useful in your day! More flows will be recorded soon, thanks again 💜
Thank you so much, I had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand in March and my left in May. I also believe that starting the day with yoga is awesome but with my hands recovering from surgery I was a bit lost. Your video is amazing, and you flow is lovely, the right amount of stillness and movement to start the day, along with your calming voice. This is my first morning doing this flow and I am beaming because I know that I can continue stretching without my hands/wrists.
I come to these wrist-free videos not because of wrist injury, but because of neck and shoulder issues that make it difficult to perform certain yoga postures without too much strain/tension that cause me tension migraines. I really love your yoga flows because even though they are wrist-free, they are still very engaging, challenging, and I still learn something new with each video. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing Nicole, so wonderful to hear that these videos are helping you. You're most welcome!
Always a good one. Thank you, James.
My pleasure Lauren, thanks for coming back to this flow!
Thank you! 😊
You're welcome 😊
My favourite morning sequence. I know it by heart now but your voice and energy are why I always tune in to the video. Thank you!
Thank you Jade, I'm happy you are here practicing with me daily!
I enjoyed this flow thanks James
You're so welcome 💜
Thankyou James
My pleasure Deborah!
As always, love it!! thank you so much James for keeping active in yoga without no pain for my wrist and hands! Blessings
Thanks Sandra
Wonderful practice. Thank you 🙏🏽
You're so welcome!
Too many fast moving vinyasa flow sessions resulted in an elbow injury... which resulted in the unexpected pleasure of finding your channel. Wonderful! Now I am addressing my sacroiliac dysfunction from decades of overenthusiastic stretching. I am learning to do modifications for all asymmetrical poses. Would love to see you address this challenge in some videos!
Thanks for another wrist free practice. Wonderful way to start my day! ❤
You're so welcome!
“The best way to start the day is always yoga” Agreed. Excellent start to my day, love the core, glutes, and energy focus, even in the absence of wrists. 👍🏼👌🏼😇
You're so welcome! So much can be explored off the wrists!
Loved this! I’ve done a few of your qigong videos and this is the first of your yogas I’ve done! Nice gentle activation and no pain in my hands woohoo 🎉 thank you!!
Wonderful to hear Claire, thank you for joining me in this flow.
Thank you, James wonderful practice as always- that was a nice change of pace from the pistol squats, much as I love them! :-))
so glad I found your wrist free yoga videos! I have RSI and really missed doing flow yoga (most of RUclips yoga seems to be hatha anyway). it feels so good to flow again :)
Glad you like them, welcome to the community Saar!
A very refreshing way to start the day. Your wrist free yoga classes brought me back the joy of flowing. Thank you, James, from Argentina! Jai Namaste!
Thank you Monica! This is wonderful to hear 🙏🏻
You're such a beautiful soul James, love your wrist free videos.
Glad you like them! Thanks Dan 🙏🏻 🌿
Another great video! You're such a wonderful instructor--I've been really enjoying your wrist-free flows while I nurse a shoulder injury. Many thanks, and alles Liebe from Austria!
Thanks for meeting you this morning James as I’m new to your channel. I’m glad to found you as I’m still having a wrist healing after my surgery. See you tomorrow from Mrs EDT
Ah thanks so much! I'm glad the videos are helpful :)
Thank you from a yoga teacher who stopped teaching due to terrible hand arthritis!
You're so welcome Julie, take care of those hands!
I love this one! It's like yoga coffee.
Haha I love this ☕️ 💜
I love your channel so much thank you 🙏🏻
You are so welcome! Thank you for being here, practicing with me and this community!

Thanks Lisa, so glad you enjoyed it!
loving the flow of your class manifestation
Thank you, glad you enjoyed this one!
Thank you James. Did this right after your live meditation course. This and your qigong video are helping me recover from back spasms from anxiety disrupting my sleep for the last 2 weeks. So thank you!
Hey Patrick! So fun to see your name on here, and glad this works as a nice adjunct to the meditation! Oh my goodness back pain and poor sleep. I know your pain i really do. I've been there for so many months and years, it can and does get better as you figure out more tools etc. Let me know if i can ever help - drop me an email my friend 💜
Beautifl, thank you James!
My pleasure ☺️
Thank you
Thank you Conrad!
Thanks a lot 🙏 😊
My pleasure!
