A yoga pose a day will be uploaded onto RTÉ LifeStyle and you can watch the pose on her You Tube Channel, Performance Yoga. All easily done in your sitting room with minimum space needed. Try them out!

Pose 9: Chair Pose (Utkatasana)

Physically, what’s it good for?

  • Leg and core strength, put simply.

OK, so we have gone from relaxing Childs Pose to heating Chair Pose today! It’s Day 9 of the ‘12 Poses of Christmas’. You are well warmed up for this now! Breathe! Please keep your knees out over your feet, do not let your knees drop in to meet each other. Place a chair behind you if you need to. In position, stay there for 6 deep breaths or longer. Have a go and let me know what you think. Find more videos on my YouTube channel, Performance Yoga.
