HealthRex Tries Locust Pose... and Needs a Chair! 🦖

Jul 31, 2026

Can everyone do every yoga pose exactly the same way?

Nope.

Not even HealthRex.

In today's video, our favourite purple dinosaur discovers that lying on the floor for Locust Pose isn't exactly easy when you're a T. rex!

So... what does it do?

It adapts.

Instead of giving up, HealthRex demonstrates a chair version of Locust Pose, showing that there's almost always a way to work toward the same goal while respecting your body.

Myth vs. Reality

🦖 Myth: If you can't do the "full" version of a yoga pose, you're doing it wrong.

✅ Reality: The best version of any movement is the one that works for your body today. Modifications aren't "cheating"—they're smart.

Remember...

• Every body is different.

• It's okay to use a chair.

• Progress isn't about looking perfect.

• Small movements still build strength.

Remember...

We don't force your body into the movement—we fit the movement to your body.

We'd love to help you in class!
