Lakshmi Voelker Chair Yoga

03/06/2026

If you’re breathing, you can do yoga. 💫

Chair yoga reminds us that movement doesn’t have to be complicated, intense, or on the floor to be meaningful. All you need is your breath, a chair, and a few moments to reconnect with your body.

That’s the heart of our practice: accessible yoga for every body, every age, and every place. 😀

This quote comes from our book "Get Fit Where You Sit" by Lakshmi Voelker & Liz Oppedijk, a guide to making yoga and movement truly accessible through the power of the chair. The book is now available on Amazon and in select local bookstores. 🪑📖

Find a chair, take a seat, and Get Fit Where You Sit!
