Home Practice: Chair Yoga

Chair Yoga is the perfect solution for people who are stuck at their desk throughout the day, or for those who find getting up and down from the floor difficult. All of these postures can be done sitting in a sturdy chair, preferably not on a sofa. You don't need any other props besides your body and the chair. Feel free to download the sequence handout below or view it from work and give yourself a productive yoga lunch break!
