Product Description:
Blends yoga-inspired movements into an all-seated exercise program. Like classic yoga, it's designed to increase flexibility, reduce stress and improve balance. You'll certainly recognize traditional yoga poses like sun salutations, downward dog and warrior. However, they've all been carefully modified to be done while sitting down (e.g. maintaining a "warrior pose" hand and arm position while your buttocks remain in the chair). Besides the yoga, Jodi Stolove includes lots of innovative, non-yoga stretch movements like “snow angels” and “spinal twists.” The program ends with short self-massage and guided relaxation segments. Calm, gentle cuing by a experienced seniors' workout instructor. ©2002.
