I just retired at age 70 and was looking for a gentle yoga. This is perfect for me. Do this every morning, then gym for either aerobic or resistance exercises. Could someone please let me know who I may thank for this wonderful chair yoga youtube video? Love and peace to everyone.
I like seeing all the other participants in the group, male and female, and younger and older.................great representation. Thanks for this high quality sound, lighting and instruction.
We are a group of seniors getting together weekly for chair yoga and exercises. Thanks for this video; it's now one of our favorites!
I'm only 28 so I always feel like I should be able to handle more than this, but I have fibromyalgia. This was challenging, yet I was able to get through it all.
At 65, I do not consider myself a "senior citizen". I do recommend this for relaxation. it is helpful.
artistphx yes! You are right! I am introducing a 46 year old friend to yoga with this video! This is great for any age & condition :)
This is one of the absolute best chair yoga classes I have ever seen
I do recreation at a Senior Living Community. We all love this video for an evening routine. I've had residents clap at the end! Thank you so much.
This was a great stretch, im 71 and i feel great, breathing is the key! Thank you!
Very relaxing and refreshing. I did this with my mom who is 90 years old.
Thank you for this. This is the first time I've ever tried yoga and it's good to feel I can do it. I am a cancer survivor.
I have a disability and try to copy some standing yoga poses, but this video has made it so much easier and accessible for me.
really enjoyed my 1st time; didn't realise it was aimed at cancer patients until i came to the comments, (i am not one), but i'm sure it would benefit anyone with limited mobility. many thanks!
Thank you so much for the chair yoga. :) love it love it with my disability I can now do yoga.Thanks again.
Thank you from someone new to yoga with physical impairments. This was very helpful and inclusive. Really calming music as well.
My doctor recommended that I try Yoga to relieve anxiety. I had never done anything like this before. I'm just getting started, but fine your video calming and encouraging. Thank you so much.
At 89 and suffering from COPD this seated yoga what just what I was looking for to supplement my daily physical therapy for lower back issues.
I have found this video so helpful . I have heart problems and I am trying to find a way to counter my high Bp which is creating serious eye problems etc. So many, many thanks for posting and reaching out to us.
This was a very calming session for me. I will be having foot surgery and am wanting to see how I can stay flexible during rehabilitation
For me is this the first chair yoga practice. I feel so relaxed afterwards.. Thank you so much.🙏
Thank you! I used to be activities director in adult home and used to teach and did nursing but now am retired and have so many things wrong. ( NEVER DREAMED NOR ANYONE ELSE) This is very nice. Gentle and caring and you do understand how it is to hurt.
Hello Carol, How are you doing?
This is also a great chair yoga for seniors! So relaxed and ready to get on with my day!
I love this video which is clear and nicely paced with a lovely meditation at the end.
I wish it was local in my area maybe my rec center in my area offers it I will check. It was not that easy. I am 70 years old. I know with practice. It gets better.
I teach chair yoga to seniors or those disabled. I love these exercises and have now added them to my teaching. Thank you so much.

I have a broken foot. I can only do chair work outs. This was the most relaxing and de-stressing exercise I have found. My balance is off, and everything aches from the air boot I have to wear. My whole being seems to improve after these lovely movements. thank you for a beautifully soothing video. :)
Hello Laurie, How are you doing?
I teach chair yoga, and am always looking for videos that will give me ideas for my own class. This is absolutely one of the best chair yoga practices that I've seen! Thank you!

I especially liked your telling the benefit/ purpose of each posture. I feel so relaxed. Thank you.
Excellent program, focusing on the breathing and combining it with the exercise allows it to be more relaxing and set your own pace.

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for posting, I am also always searching for chair yoga videos. I am a breast cancer survivor and use a wheelchair from SCI, so this was perfect for me.
TYVM. I needed this. I'll be trying to make time every day, perhaps twice a day for this.
This is good. Any more from the cancer center?
Much appreciated. I am diabetic and the gentle exercises help me keep my glucose numbers lower by doing these exercises about three times a week.
Thank you, this is really good for people with chronic pain and illnesses.
Hello Susannah, How are you doing?
Excellent! I am a cancer patient and suffer greatly from pain. Many of the positions were painful, but I just pulled back until the muscle relaxed. Thank you for your service. This video is very helpful.
Thank you. Chair yoga is very interesting,relaxing and inspiring. Will do every day.
I like it. So gentle and soothing yet gives me more energy.
Hello are there any more gentle yoga classes like this one ? Very relaxing.
This freshens my ligaments without exhausting me. I have the illness commonly, yet inadequately, known as chronic fatigue syndrome as well as fibromyalgia and complications.

thank you! I am a first timer, and have very little flexibility in lower body due to weight and rheumatoid arthritis. I feel energized, and to help with the leg lifting, may use a towel or sheet next time.
what a great idea about the sheet or towel, i have had multiple knee replacement surgeries on both knees and very limited mobility on the knee bending, so that may help a lot........... thanks for the idea.
Megan Murphy no
no to what Chris Ellis? i'm confused? Because I thought this was a fantastic idea.
