OMG, thank you! This is the only yoga video I can actually follow.
Thanks for this. I've tried it once, and I plan to do it daily whenever possible. I was struck with acute onset inflammatory polyarthritis two and a half months ago, and went from being active, flexible, strong and fit to practically immobilized. My meds have now wrecked my sleep. But I can do the mildest form of this routine before bedtime, and maybe in the middle of the night I can try some of the poses while seated on the edge of my bed. I am grateful to be able to do yoga again.

Day 8 here I come
Day 2, I Love this video. The music the constant reminder to breath. I am 57 yes old, 159 lbs size 18. In a lot of pain. But video is helping in so many ways. I also like the ending to relax and Breath. Thank you to whom ever created this video.
I agree with you Marie Stanley. I am going to do this daily as well.
Thanks much. Very helpful! Quick question: How often thoughout the day should I do chair yoga? Thanks again, Toney

This is a great class. Very easy to follow and I always feel good when completed.

I love this routine! Will do that often 😍
Thank you : ) did for first time…. did first 10 minutes for a starter. Saved and subscribed : )
what is this beautiful background music?
Thank you ladies! This was an outstanding yoga session. Being able to use a chair helps me so much with balance issues and makes me not afraid to try the yoga poses. I feel great after doing this!
I used to do yoga all the time and i was so fit and happy. Then menopause hit along with some really bad joint problems (all of them). And i somehow pulled every muscle in my right side the other day. And ive gained 50lbs in what seems over night. I finally remembered (yeah, memory is shot also) to try this and i love it!! It was just right. I made sure i was all wrapped up so i wouldnt hurt my side more. Id like to get a shorter chair but I feel good and hopeful for the first time in a long time, so, thank you ladies, im going to try to do this day and night because my sleep is absolute shit again also and i know this helps🕉💜
it's a song HAHAHAHAAAAA
I love these videos and found them so helpful – I just found more from Cara on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrJLTuD9EHQ
I’ve been doing yoga for 50 years and still found this a very satisfying class.

Love this! I've lost 15 pounds and has improved my back pain!
Excellent routine !
Perfect for a shared seated yoga group! Use it often!
I love this video and have performed it 5 days a week for 14 months now. It is a gentle strength builder, and relieves joint pain.

What I especially like about this video is the amount of time holding the stretches; most videos don’t give enough time. I also appreciate repeating movements a number of times. Thanks for posting these.
I started doing chair yoga after working out and wow I feel so good and way less sore thank you cara
Why noise in background? Most distracting I felt tension because of it thank you j
I am a yoga teacher looking for ideas to teach chair yoga to a group of women with various disabilities. This is absolutely the best chair yoga sequence I've encountered thus far in my research! Thanks so much!! Emma
I am 80 yeas old and have been going to physical therapy for a few weeks (which helps) but when I found you, I have been doing yoga every morning also. I am feeling so much better and am less stiff. Thank you for you.
I do this daily.
I just found this video by accident. I think it’s exactly what I need
