    Thanks for the video! I have ankylosing spondolitis and there is not many videos on this topic. Can you do a "what not to do video" for certain conditions? These can cause flare ups for spondolitis, skip these if you have knee problems etc. So we can fine tune to our needs even within regular videos or other workouts?

    Yes right. All these yoga are very helpful in Ankylosing Spondylitis & Stenosis. I have AS from 9 years. I have stenosis from 2 years. Now I am pain free. I am doing all these yoga which you are doing. Really these are very helpful. Thank you 😊

I could not do a few of the exercises as my right knee has arthritis, inflammation and I have received steroid injection but still very painful. So I cannot do much movement with my right knee. Also both my wrists have arthritis pain. Is there anything that you could kindly suggest that would help? Thanks again for your help.

    This is a great class for back pain or tightness or if you are looking for gentle mobility moves and an overall stretch. Ankylosing spondylitis is an inflammatory disease that over time can cause the bones in your spine to fuse making you feel stiff and tight among other things.

    Yep. I’d recommend not neglecting it as it can worsen when the joints fuse with each other. The fusion generally happens later on but you want to try and avoid it by staying fit where possible. I have neglected my AS and am now paying the consequences with constant pain day in day out. Good luck, hopefully you can maintain it cos it’s not fun at all :)

    Yes, I also got diagnosed 2 years ago, I was 19. Basically the doc told me the only thing I can do is to prevent it from getting worse, and swimming is the only proven one to help, I swam almost everyday for 2 years and it helps a lot. I feel no pain at all except when waking up but it's just the bed is too soft for me, anyway Im trying to do yoga instead of swimming since it's more practical, I also saw youtube channel where the creator told us about yoga for AS too, and it worked for him for decades... so just keep moving and prevent staying in the same position (sitting/lying in bed) for too long, good luck bro.
