Steady Seat Yoga （Subtitle） A Gentle Chair-Based Program for Strength, Balance, Flexibility, and Calm After 60

Getting older doesn’t mean slowing down — it means moving smarter. Whether you’re 60 or 90, whether you’re
a former athlete or someone who has never set foot in a gym, chair yoga meets you exactly where you are.
This book grew out of a simple observation: millions of older Americans struggle with stiff joints, chronic pain,
poor balance, and low energy — yet most mainstream fitness resources weren’t designed with them in mind.
Chair yoga changes that. By anchoring every movement to a sturdy chair, it removes the fear of falling and
opens the door to gentle, consistent exercise for people of all fitness levels.
The 40 poses in this guide have been carefully selected and sequenced for safety, effectiveness, and enjoyment.
You’ll find warm-ups that ease morning stiffness, core movements that protect your back, leg exercises that
strengthen the muscles that keep you on your feet, and calming breathwork that eases anxiety and improves
sleep.
You don’t need a yoga mat, special clothing, or a gym membership. All you need is a sturdy chair and about 20
to 30 minutes of your day. That small investment, made consistently, can return dividends in flexibility,
strength, balance, mood, and confidence that ripple through every part of your life.
Start slowly. Listen to your body. Celebrate every small win. And remember — the best exercise is the one you
actually do.
