The Balans Kneeling Chair Collection by Variér

The Balans kneeling chair collection by Variér is one of the most enduring ergonomic designs of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Beginning with the original Balans design, The Variable Balans, Peter Opsivik pioneered the way we think about sitting by encouraging the body to move while seated. Furthermore, by sitting in a kneeling position the body is encouraged to sit upright, helping to support the natural s-shaped curve of the spine.

The Variable, Thatsit, Wing, and Multi Balans chairs serve the user in slightly different capacities, so we thought we'd make a video demonstrating the differences between these iconic kneeling chairs. If you have any questions about these Variér kneeling chairs, please contact the kneeling chair experts at Ergo Depot.
