Hello, I am looking for Alzheimers-friendly, seated exercise videos. My client can't concentrate on the movements if there is background music, and the exercises need to be simple for her to follow. Can anyone share anything that has worked for them please?! Many thanks!

This one looks very gentle and simple to follow with no music:
