This practical guide offers a pioneering method of chair yoga for every body: a full practice of asana, breathing, and meditation with 250 instructional photos.

Lakshmi Voelker's Chair Yoga(TM) method upends the myth that yoga is only for the flexible, strong, balanced, thin, and conventionally able-bodied. Whether you need or want chair support, or you would like to get in some yoga practice while you sit at your work desk, Get Fit Where You Sit offers 40 active and restorative poses, illustrated with 250 photos, along with breathing techniques and meditation practices--all adapted so that you don't have to leave your chair. Poses include:

  • Tree Pose--for a flexible spine and to combat the slump we often get with a sedentary lifestyle
  • Eagle Pose--for healthy joints
  • Squat Pose--to relax the lower back
  • Knee-to-Chest Pose--to support good digestion
  • Coherent breathing--to bring the body's systems into balance
  • And much more

Lakshmi Voelker and Liz Oppedijk offer a powerful, inclusive practice that is appropriate for new students or longtime practitioners and can easily be implemented by yoga instructors, educators, medical professionals, exercise professionals, or caretakers for work with their clients.
