I have two knee replacements and do yoga twice a week. What works for me is to tell the yoga instructor before class my need to modify poses. I have done Zoom classes and in person classes. Hopefully, they give a choice of a pose or a modified pose. That has worked for me. Balance is a big issue for me. Presently, for tree pose, I just put my foot against my leg. I don’t even lift it off the ground. Good Luck.

Hello @pegkavaney and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thank you for sharing what I feel is very sage advice about sharing your limitations up front so the instructor can share modified poses.

How long have you been practicing?
