Kaiut Yoga is focused on the biomechanics of the body- specifically the joints. Most body issues (biomechanics) stem from the body’s girdles- ankle, hip and/or shoulder. Our bodies collect traumas throughout our lifetime- be it from a remembered accident to a forgotten tumble or fall. The body gets affected and the results are accumulated issues, pain and stiffness.

Our hips are greatly affected by the way we sit. Our sitting position is one of the worst things we do to our bodies. Technically, we are designed to squat down, not sit in chairs. Added to this are modern day computers, phones, etc . that only add to our physical disfunction. With these factors added up, it’s no wonder so many people suffer from issues stemming from their hips.

Kaiut Yoga addresses these problems by opening up the joints to allow fluid, blood and energy to flow through. It finds the blockages within the body and helps to dissolve those restrictions over time. It also helps to neurologically change our brains and establish different patterns of movement and new memories pertaining to those changes.

All of this takes time. And it can be uncomfortable. Many of us have a lifetime of accumulated “stuff” in our bodies that does or will have a negative impact on our health. Nothing happens quickly in nature (think hurricanes and tornadoes). It is a process to make positive change, and it takes patience.

We live in a society which does not like to feel discomfort or pain... me included! But these feelings are our bodies way of talking to us. Ignoring or avoiding pain only separates us from our bodies and it’s needs.

So, in a nutshell, it is normal to feel a little sore after a class. It is also normal not to feel anything. If you have very tight hips and they are just learning to open, it’s with a brand new perspective and sense of kindness and compassion. This is how we approach this unique practice.

The beauty of Kaiut Yoga is it truly is for everybody. It’s for the young and the old (age is really only a number here!), the super tight to the very flexible, the recently injured to those who have been living with old injuries. It’s for people who are just coming back from a surgery to people who are trying to avoid surgery. It’s a practice that can support you on your wellness path and keep you feeling healthy and young for the rest of your life. I look forward to supporting you on this path!
