I was thrilled to see a seated yoga practice because there are times when I need to be careful of my balance.
Unfortunately, I couldn't get through more than ten minutes of this practice because I was dizzy from what, for me, was a breathing rate bordering on hyperventilation. My natural breath and slower than this instructor has us breathing and, even when I'm on a brisk walk, my breathing is deeper than the movements demanded.
Perhaps for someone who doesn't breathe slowly, this would be a better practice. For me, I was so light-headed I had to stop and, when I tried to slow down I was so focused on ensuring I did the same number of repetitions on each side that the meditative value of the practice was completely lost.
