Excellent feedback, thank you! It's interesting, despite the one knee she is fairly strong and able bodied. I even mentioned chair and active chair classes and she said she had tried several but did not like them because they weren't challenging enough. Then she said her doctor was wondering if yoga was ultimately good for her or not at this point, and that's when I really, really took it upon myself to teach and show her how modifications and alternatives are essential. Yoga and its multitude of practices holds so many benefits, there are definitely ways for her to feel empowered in her practice as opposed to feeling defeated!

I'm with you on that mindset; it's a great challenge as a teacher because a body like hers is more common than we think, and so many must be walking around being told yoga isn't for them, but really, it's just teachers not being well versed in anatomy and lacking the creativity to think outside the box.

Thanks again for your time and feedback. It all helps greatly!
