Avita Yoga is a gentle, joint-centered practice that replaces stretching and force with listening and purposeful movement.
Avita is a gentle, joint-centered practice. Instead of asking how far you can stretch, it teaches you to notice how your joints respond — simple shapes, held gently, giving the body room to reorganize from the inside out.
In this free six-part series, Jeff introduces the ideas behind Avita through short teachings and simple guided practices. You don’t need to be flexible. You don’t need yoga experience.

I want to thank you for all the help I have received from your classes. The extension and compression work has really helped my knees. I took one of Lori’s classes, which incorporated compression for my hands under my hips. I have been doing compression and flexing for my arthritic hands, and it has been amazing how much it has helped! I turn 80 this year, and I really believe my Avita practice has kept me active, healthy, and free of joint pain. Thank you!
At 68 and a breast cancer survivor, I needed a lifelong yoga practice that supported my health—not just form or flexibility. Diagnosed with osteopenia, I found in Avita a safe, effective way to strengthen my bones and maintain joint health without medical intervention. After eight years, my lower spine mobility has noticeably improved.
The meditative benefits are just as powerful—calming, grounding, and filled with a quiet sense of love and unity. Though I’d tried many styles before, Avita is the only one I’ve been able to practice consistently.
Beginning my journey with Avita Yoga was easy. Jeff has guided me down a road I have desired my entire life. I have learned new ways to strengthen my body and joints while reducing inflammation. These changes, along with Jeff’s guidance on health, nutrition, breathing, and well-being, have improved my stamina and mobility. My sleep has never been better! I am experiencing a sense of calm and peace that I have longed for, and I am very proud of the accomplishments I have made. I need Avita yoga for life, and I’m looking forward to my first yoga retreat, something that has been on my bucket list for 40 years.
Avita yoga is a gentle yet powerful practice that works not just on my physical body but also calms my mind and nourishes my soul!! I came in with chronic elbow and shoulder restrictions, and now I have less pain and more mobility. Avita has become more than just exercise; it’s a meditative, healing practice that has brought balance and perspective into my life.
