FAQ
Can chair yoga help with weight loss?
Yes, it can be a gentle place to start. Regular low-impact movement supports healthy weight loss, especially alongside balanced habits. Most of all, you'll feel lighter and more comfortable moving.
Can I do Yogio with bad knees or back pain?
Yes. During setup you can mark sensitive areas, and your plan swaps out moves that put stress on them. Always follow your doctor's advice.
What's the difference between chair yoga and tai chi?
Chair yoga uses a chair for support while you stretch and strengthen. Tai chi is a slow, flowing practice that focuses on balance and coordination. Yogio combines both in one plan.
Is Yogio safe for seniors who are afraid of falling?
Every session is low-impact and done seated or standing, with a chair for support and no jumping. Programs were created with a rehabilitation specialist, and tai chi sessions focus on balance, so you build confidence step by step.

Thoughtful and kind to older folks

It’s the first app that I’ve seen that is sensitive to older generations with their health issues and limitations. Not everyone is a finesse model or a gym rat. Most people just want to be healthy or healthier than that are right now. And this is what this app does. It does not sell you the six pack - it works with your pains, limitations, and starts building you up from a comfortable cushion of your chair. The app is easy to follow from the first click, and it slowly takes you into your self journey.

Getting to the bottom

I could not load my day #4 and I was actually feeling some kind of way. I am really working hard and following my daily work out and when I couldn’t load it and was in my feelings, it let me know that I was trying harder than I thought to stay on track. These exercises are soothing and I am willing to make them a part in f my daily activity. So I was able to load it on my phone and move forward. I feel so much better and on course!
I just started

I literally signed up for this morning and was going to put it off, trying it, but I clicked open the app and saw that the first session was only five minutes. I said I could at least do five minutes. It’ll be over before it starts lol! It was so easy to follow the instructions and it truly was only five minutes and I feel better. I’ve decided to this the next 30 days!
