“If you have issues with your knees,
do these movements really gently,
and rest from time to time
.”

Ergonomic Anti-Fatigue Matting

So yes, you will need a chair for this lesson, a solid chair with a back.

Vita - after your beautiful ‘work’ in last night’s lesson, I think you’ll like this one, it’s a little bit more meditative and… interesting.

I’m a little bit tired, a few events interrupted my schedule today, so this lesson is a lot later than usual and I want to go to bed!

I asked Grok to help me explain a benefit that might make this lesson attractive:

Functional Coordination:

Movements like hopping and bending while holding the chair integrate the knee with the pelvis and feet, improving coordinated movement patterns. This is particularly beneficial for functional tasks like walking or climbing stairs.

Anatomical impact: The knee’s role as a hinge joint is reinforced through dynamic interplay with the hip and ankle, promoting efficient load distribution.

Enjoy learning more about, with and FOR your Self through this lesson:
