Featured Video: Amber Karnes Demonstrating Vinyasas Using a Chair

We love this video of Amber Karnes demonstrating how to do Sun Salutations and other vinyasas using a chair, which makes these asanas accessible to those who can't get up and down from the floor or to anyone who can't do the classic versions for any reason. Moving with your breath is not only uplifting but it also helps improve strength, balance, and agility as well as focus and mindfulness. —Nina




Amber Karnes is the founder of Body Positive Yoga and the creator of the Body Positive Clubhouse. She works with humans who want to make peace with their bodies and build unshakable confidence. For her, yoga has been an integral part of a decade-long journey toward self-acceptance and body positivity—a journey of making peace with my body and helping others to do the same.
