avita yoga
Avita Yoga™ is a methodology that gently identifies restrictions impeding the body’s natural potential for freedom of movement, while simultaneously providing the mode to resolve them.

Restrictions and limitations are resolved in a manner that is adaptable and unique to each student.

It’s a process that accesses the deep healing power of the mind, putting the focus on you and your process. Anyone can practice Avita Yoga™. This 60-minute practice is designed to work with every type of body. No experience is necessary and many first-time students quickly get comfortable with the practice.
