I am so glad I experienced those supported Warrior poses. They felt great and were enjoyable. My body is thanking me for that hour.

I'm recovering from the flu, and didn't feel comfortable taking on a rigorous practice just yet - and this practice was perfect. My aching muscles all feel incredible relief - and my hamstrings and hips feel open. I'm also excited to learn some new ways to use props!

The first half of this class uses a chair/ottoman, while the second half is on the floor. It had an easy, restorative pace.

This class gives a great massage to the low back. I soffer from low back pain now and then and this feels it really releases the tension around the area of low back. I especially liked the second half of the class, great twistings. thank you Sarah!

slow moving, a good nighttime class. I wish they had also demo'd it with a normal chair as I found it a bit awkward (and how many people have those ottomans anyhow?). lots of twists!

Really helped to relieve my stiff lower back and included stretches that I have not done before to loosen up my back, I feel so much better! Thank you Sarah!

I purchased this video bc of an aching back. however i do not have a ottoman nor do i work in an office, those facts were not in the description. i now spent the money on it, and don't use it. otherwise i love this site.

The chair series helps to loosen the back and hamstrings before moving to the deep hip/hamstring work on the mat. Twisting lizard helps to stretch all areas of the back, and Sarah helps you remain mindful about keeping in your edge.

I recently underwent lots of physical therapy and chiropractic visits for an SI joint issue and piriformis syndrome and it has taken me quite some time to enjoy pain-free yoga again. This class however, really hit the spot. Delightfully gentle and soothing on these areas while achieving all of the asanas I like to practice - these modifications allow you to really focus on alignment and feel the integrity of what the pose should offer your body. Great job, Sarah - this is one of my favorite "ailment specific" classes yet!

Relaxed practice, best for people in a lower back pain flare, I think. This could have saved me a lot of money on PT. I plan on using some of the chair asanas at work!

I am new to YogaToday. I do hot yoga but have been wanting to focus more on my lower back as I have lower back pain. This class was amazing for my back and opening it and also my hips which can be part of my lower back problem. Since the focus was on the back, it was challenging enough for me because I had to really think about the poses and how to open my back instead of crunching it. Really great class!

Oh, it feels so good. I did this class in the evening and it made me feel so good. I will do this one again and again! Thanks Sarah. Ursula

Good streches on chair. Alernative way to various yoga pose. Loved the twists on the chair.
