I went to a yoga class yesterday and, guess what? I got to sit in a chair! It was really a lot of fun and I want to thank my Youthful Yogis friend, Duncan, for taking me to the class.
Youthful Yogis know that
Chair Yoga is a super popular activity: you can do it almost anywhere, and you never even have to sit on the floor!

"I can't talk now...I'm practicing yoga!" |

"Chair Yoga rocks!!" |
I hope you'll have fun trying some chair yoga poses on your own, Youthful Yogis.
Remember you can do these poses in a lot of different places: at home, in an airport, on a park bench, or even sitting in the dentist's office waiting to see how those X-rays turned out. Have fun, and think about sharing what you learn with friends and relatives.
FYI...a lot of grandparents go nuts for Chair Yoga!!

"All I can think about is Chair Yoga!" |
That's all for now, Youthful Yogis. See you again soon!
Namaste
