I’ve just had a brand new website created 😊

It feels like such a big step up from the one I built myself, and it brings everything into one place, my classes, videos, and some helpful articles exploring things like stiffness, movement, and everyday wellbeing.

If you have a moment, I’d really love you to take a look and let me know what you think.

Thank you so much 🙏❤️

Proof that it’s never too late to feel stronger! ✨
I am so touched by this beautiful message from a viewer in the US. This is exactly why I share these videos! ❤️

"I discovered your videos after taking an in-person chair yoga class. I have been doing at least two videos most days since mid-December. I can definitely feel an improvement in my walk, my hips, and general wellness. I am 76 and have had both knees replaced. So glad I found your channel. Thanks, Tina!"

Whether you are recovering from surgery like this lovely viewer, or just looking to improve your mobility, Chair Yoga is a fantastic way to stay active. In today’s video, we’re using light weights to build upper body strength and bone density. 🪑💪

65,000 subscribers!!! 🎉 feeling very grateful as I write this…

A few years ago when I started uploading, my grandson (age 8 at the time) said, “Nanna, you might get a YouTube play button when you reach 100k.” I remember thinking… bless him, such a lovely thought, and I loved his confidence in his Nanna.🥰

And yet here we are, two thirds of the way there… he may have been onto something!

It really does make me pause and feel so grateful… for every view, every comment, and every one of you who has taken the time to join me on the mat or chair.

Life has a funny way of surprising you.

Thank you for being here and for all your lovely support ❤️🙏
