Hopefully it will build on top of the slow-motion swimming that she often does.
Next time your mom tries a class, I recommend she come a few minutes early and speak to the instructor beforehand and let them know of injuries. Yoga is a multi-level format unless otherwise stated. I hate it when someone waits until the end of class or during a movement to tell me they're injured! It's my worst nightmare realized- BUT I can always accommodate ahead of time if I get a heads up! . We are sooooooo damn grateful when we know there are people that need to deviate from the planned exercises and offer alernatives/modifications!

Kudos to your mom for continuing with the exercises, though!!!!
