    Don
    I did classroom yoga for 10 years. I tore up both of my knees through work and had to have them both replaced,
    I was doing yoga for my back problems, which worked great. After my replacements, I was very worried about the well being of my back.
    It was difficult getting on my knees, so, enter Yoga TX! I got your sight from my former yoga instructor.
    It was a god send for me and my back. It also helped with the rehab for my knees.
    At 71 years old I have developed spinal stinosis. I still do your yoga 5 times/week. It does help with my back pain.
    It also keeps me pretty flexible. I had my knees replaced in 2016, so I have been doing your chair yoga since then.
    Thank you so much for helping me stay reasonably flexible.
    The first time I did your yoga, I remember toward the end when you say "maybe you notice a difference between the start of practice and now".
    The first thing came to mind was yes, I am more sore! 😁😁

    I want to tell you that your video might just have saved my Yoga practice. I only found and began practicing Yoga last November 30 (2015) and it was the final piece in learning to love myself. Yoga helped me love my larger-than-average body I'd been trying to escape for 45 years- (six-feet tall and built pretty stocky) and I had worked hard to get down to a size that was healthy for me; and then in August of this year my right knee gave out from aggressive Rheumatoid Arthritis and I am getting a knee replacement next Wednesday. I was in so much pain and so scared of that pain, I let my practice go and just stopped walking and stopped doing Yoga. I got depressed and gained 20 pounds. Then I remembered when I very first started losing weight, long before I found Yoga - I did Sit and Be Fit (PBS) until I could stand and do other types of exercise- mainly walking. Walking is the best after Yoga. . . anyway so I searched RUclips vids for chair Yoga and found YOU. I tried others but they were either too hard or too easy but yours was just right and your nice voice and awesome instruction brought me back to my Practice and therefore back into my body (SUCH a gift!) and after a week of rededicating myself to Yoga I again have strength in the right quad and feel strong and ready to rehab my way back to my normal routine, even though it will take time. Until then I am going to do your routine (even bringing it with me to the hospital on my laptop) so again, thank you so much - you are definitely a really good teacher :)

    Thank you for this video. I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and POTS and had to stop doing yoga for a long time due to joint dislocations and fainting. I teared up a little bit as I finished my first yoga session in over a year. So, thank you.

      I have Ehlers-Danlos I/II as well and due to multiple dislocations, subluxations and surgeries have lost a lot of my flexibility and am walker and wheelchair dependent. I love this! I feel like I am stretching in a good way and doing something positive! So nice to meet another zebra!

    I also teach chair yoga, and have a book on it, and lead chair yoga teacher trainings. I really like this video! It has some postures that are challenging, even seated and has a good, slow pacing, holding postures long enough to settle in. I like the cactus arms and goddess pose names and variations! Well done! Yoga is for everyone! Namaste, Stacie

    I am two weeks post bunion op. I found you today after searching for a couple of days. My goodness. Yours is the best. I could not do the warrior ones etc because I need to keep my left foot elevated most of the time as otherwise very uncomfortable but so pleased I could do all the other poses even with foot most of the time elevated . It made all hot and perspiring will you believe . However, I also feel weirdly good in an almost sick way and I feel it will help my recovery in the long run , mentally, physically and emotionally as don’t feel useless. I am quite surprised how hard I found it and I even got breathless . I have been lying around ,as this was all I could do ninety percent of the time for two weeks, and consider myself quite fit . I’m in my fifties and have done yoga etc regularly . I find the loss of fitness etc after only such a short time shocking. So I thank you again for putting such a great and very helpful and well thought out and enjoyable videunup. I’m in the Uk and I’ve been subscribing your channel for a few years now. Very good.

    I wanted to thank you for this video! I have never practiced yoga. A friend suggested it due to my knee and back injuries that has lasted (literally) several years. I thought my friend was crazy and practicing yoga was impossible! I appreciate your inspiration and explanations, including what pose and 'why' you're doing the poase as well as how to modify movements. And, I do sincerely appreciate your inspiration toward the end for everyone to thank themselves! You've given me hope to be a better me! Thank you!

    Thank you for this. I have physical disabilities such that I can't exercise on land. Because of this I became a water aerobics instructor. With the pandemic the pools are closed (and rightly so) but it means not having a comfortable way to exercise. I enjoyed following this today though needed to make modifications for my hips and back. I would love to see a similar program that calls special attention to those areas. Thanks again.

    I loved this even though I couldn't flow through changing positions as quickly. I have fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis throughout my whole spine and other joints and am somewhat new to chair yoga but really enjoying the the youtube I'm finding. In the area I live, no one offers chair yoga which is a disservice as I feel there is great need for it. Thank you so much for this Practice!!

    I really enjoyed this. I, too, am suffering from knee problems and was feeling incredibly discouraged to not be able to do my normal fitness walking. I've never been a fan of yoga, but I was able to do all of these moves. Thanks for posting this and for being incredibly relatable. I'm eager to try your other videos of modified yoga.

  • @benvolio15
    @benvolio15 9 лет назад +4

    This felt good...most of the time. But compared to Cole's chair yoga practice, which I've been working on for the last few months, there's almost a little too much emphasis on twists for me right now. Maybe I should try this one when I feel ready for more advanced moves.

    • @searchfortheperhaps4570
      @searchfortheperhaps4570 9 лет назад +3

      +benvolio15 Thanks for the feedback! Please keep in mind that you can take any twist as deeply (or not!) as you would like. Please feel free to adjust this practice to however feels best for YOUR body. If you decide to skip a twist, just continue to breathe deeply :). Otherwise, you are welcome to still twist, but just twist less, if that makes sense. Just make sure that when you do twist, you tighten your belly and twist from your center (meaning your belly and your back) RATHER than torquing by pulling with your arms. This will help you get a better workout in the center of your body, as well as protect your body from any harm. Let me know what you think and thanks again for your comment! -Lauren

    • @TheWyldHeart
      @TheWyldHeart 8 лет назад +1

      +Search for the Perhaps that is what I have had to do. I modify it sometimes daily depending on what RA is doing to my body any given moment.

Subbed to both YTX and to your channel :)
