Pages: 1 dvd thats easy on the wrists?       #207245 - 08/21/05 04:35 PM Edit Reply Quote hawkeye Reged: 06/16/03 Posts: 705 Loc: NYC Hi, I'd like to get started again on doing some yoga. I did a few months of Hatha yoga in the past, and I loved it but it killed my hands and i stopped going. I've had tendonitis on and off in my wrists for years. So, I could use something without lots of "downward dog" and other poses with weightbaring on the hands. Any ideas?

The warm-up does include downward facing dog, but maybe you'd be okay just doing it then...or maybe you could ease into the other sections?

I actually got it for my husband who has limited flexibility in his hips due to extensive reconstructive surgery. I'm hoping he'll take to it, but you never know.

He also says it's a surprisingly good workout, and he was quite sore the first week. I'd imagine if chair yoga works for him (the whole class is actually seniors) it would certainly be easy enough on the wrists for someone who has that sensitivity. - H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
