About the Book

'The improvement in my strength, mobility and fluidity is remarkable. However rusty your body feels, I urge you to give it a try.' - Dame Sheila Hancock SHORTLISTED FOR THE HEALTH AND WELLBEING AWARDS 2025 – BEST WELLBEING BOOK Learn how seated exercise can help you lead a happy, healthy and active life. All you need is somewhere to sit. If you find movement a challenge, have reduced mobility or are recovering from injury, seated movement is an enjoyable and beneficial alternative to more demanding workouts. Chair Pilates and Yoga is filled with tried and tested exercises to keep you fit and healthy – all while seated on a chair or using a chair as a prop. Influenced by Pilates and yoga, these guided movements will help improve your flexibility, strength, balance, posture and breathing, and can reduce aches and pains. Featuring step-by-step exercises that target different parts of the body, this manual is suitable for all levels and abilities. You can dip in when you need a quick stretch, or follow full-body routines when you have more time. Along with tips and modifications, you will also find expert advice and motivational case studies from those who have already discovered the rewards of Chair Pilates and Yoga.
