i would've never thought that a chair yoga can be so effective and toning! Just every muscle and every joint in the body feel so good afterwards! Many thanks from Russia, Tatiana
Hi Olga!! I just started teaching some chair classes and this is by far my favorite class to do myself and to learn from you. Thank you for your lovely practice.
Hi Olga, I'm a subscriber of your membership site, which I love and find so, so useful! I've been hunting for an article and/or video that targets herniated discs. Do you have such an article or video? There is a lot of conflicting advice on what poses to do and what poses to avoid with a herniated/bulging disc. I'm interested in what your suggest and why.
Hi Gail! Thank you for being a loyal Sequence Wiz member! I generally try to stay away from giving advice for herniated disk situations because there is so much variability there - which symptoms it causes, what movements aggravate it, the intensity of discomfort, etc. I much prefer to work with students one-on-one with that and investigate each specific situation. I might investigate this topic in the future in an article, but I doubt I would ever do a RUclips video for it. The potential for error is too great when inexperienced folks try it on their own. If I stumble over a useful practice I will let you know!
Thank you, Olga. I certainly understand why you don't give advice! As a beginning yoga instructor, I have researched this topic intensively and found conflicting treatments. I teach a chair class, as well as a gentle class. I shy away from taking any private client with disc issues at this time, because I'm not knowledgeable enough to guide them. I plan to enter the Viniyoga Institute's therapeutic program as soon as possible. I enjoy your articles and videos very much!
A lovely flow. Just one question: I don't get any stretch in the quads when I place my lower leg under the chair. This stretch just isn't passive enough for me; perhaps my hip flexors are too tight? Should I just go through the motions - will it still be of benefit?
Hi Virginia! You can try moving yourself a bit closer to the edge of the chair (just please be safe) and try hanging your leg down from the hip. Even if you don't feel much of a stretch, your hips should release a bit.
I went to physical therapy for 6 weeks and this does more for me then they ever could.
Really enjoyed this. Thanks so much
Excellent practice!!

love your videos, Olga. Tougher than most.
