Why Yoga Isn’t About Pretzels (and What It Really Gives You After 50)
Redefined Yoga | SEP 9, 2025
🔥 Yoga is NOT about bending yourself into a pretzel.
It’s not about Instagram-worthy photos or the latest “trendy flow.”
That’s not yoga. That’s performance.
Real yoga—the kind that changes your life—is about restoring your body’s natural design.
It’s about confidence.
It’s about stability.
It’s about moving through life without fear of pain.
It’s about the freedom to play with your grandkids … and the peace of finally sleeping through the night without aches waking you up.

How can I promise you this? Because I lived the other side.
👉 I hurt my back doing conventional yoga.
👉 Every teacher told me: “stretch more.”
👉 The more I stretched, the worse it got.
👉 I tried ignoring the pain—but it only grew.
I searched everywhere for answers. Nothing worked.
So I built my own method—Functional Yoga Instruction.
Functional Yoga Instruction blends:
Classic yoga poses
Strengthening drills
Physical therapy principles
It’s not about forcing yourself into deeper stretches.
It’s about building strength, stability, and mobility—safely.
Over the years, I’ve taught this method to thousands of real people, most over 50, who once believed yoga might break them instead of help them.
When you restore your foundation—the way your body was designed to move—you unlock your quality of life.
That’s when the pain fades.
That’s when confidence returns.
That’s when you feel strong, steady, and capable again.
I didn’t want to create another cookie-cutter yoga class.
And I definitely didn’t want endless stretching routines that leave you unstable.
I built VIP Online to be a complete transformation:
⚡ Step-by-step lessons that are safe and effective
⚡ Weekly live sessions where you’re guided, not left guessing
⚡ A proven method trusted by people just like you
⚡ Ongoing support and community, so you’re never on your own
I know your pain because I’ve lived it.
I know the frustration, the doubt, the “maybe yoga just isn’t for me” feeling.
But there’s a better way forward.
And it’s built for you.
👉 Are you ready to stop “stretching” and start living with strength, stability, and mobility?
🚀 Let’s talk about how this works for YOU.
