@lakshmi0050: Namaste Lakshmi, as for your request for thoughts on these matters I thought I would clarify that technically speaking, one CAN sit IN a chair provided the chair has armrests, which is the case with the chair Rick is using.
With regard to your sharp comment: I believe that any yoga teacher should at least practice ahimsa. Rick has selflessly shared his videos with us (karma yoga). I would be very interested to see parts of your world acclaimed videos here but your channel is empty
This video is great. Whether you are ON a chair or IN a chair it does not matter. They are clear simple exercises which are very beneficial to my husband who is a wheelchair user. Thankyou. We really appreciate it :)
Namaste Rick, We practice chair yoga ON a chair not IN a chair. we sit ON a chair not IN a chair. Also where are the contraindications? I teach chair yoga on a chair and I am very aware of the levels of flexibility and contraindications. any thoughts on these matters of concern to me?
I have learned over the years that every yoga teacher is going to have different way of teaching plus a different way they word things. When I just started out I let these things bug me, but later learned that yoga is more about the acceptance of all the ways, and knowing that what is right to me does not have to be right to someone else, that is letting go of the ego. Yoga goes way further then how we sit in a chair or sit on a chair. That is just one tiny part of the yoga experience. Thanks
I found this video very helpful. Thank you so much!

This was very effective. I was too sore to work out this morning but got energized by this routine. I must be getting old :0)

I like your new yoga videos! This one is especially helpful because I've been studying extra hard and sitting so much. Thank you and please do more!
