Good yoga tapes for "Old" people?
Question:
My 80 year old grandmother has pretty bad back pain, and it’s getting worse all the time because the pain keeps her from getting any exercise. Does anyone have any recommendations for yoga instructional tapes that particularly focus on the elderly? I’m hoping particularly for some that show elderly people doing some very basic moves that would help her, so she would be willing to give it a try. I have a feeling she wouldn’t be interested in videos full of 19 year old kids, but if I had some to show her and do with her that had people of a similar age it might work as a reassurance. Also, are there any particular recommendations for non-strenuous moves to help with the back, other than the Cobra position? Christy Ann
