Kaiut Yoga was designed for the modern mind and body, with biomechanics and mobility as its foundation. Kaiut approaches the body through the joints, resulting in freedom of movement and vitality throughout the body.
By adapting yoga practices used all over the globe, Francisco Kaiut developed this method to counteract the effects of our modern lifestyles which include excessive hours of sitting, working with computers and a lack of varied daily movement. The method works by increasing circulation and reducing restrictions in the joints.
Kaiut is a gentle practice, using time and gravity as our main props. Students choose the level of intensity based on their own sensation and history, allowing for each student to modulate how the practice works for their own body. This is yoga for EVERY BODY.

“I am a 74-year-old woman with stage 4 arthritis in my knees with flat, pronating feet. I have been doing Kaiut yoga with Michelle Sanders two hours a week for 10 months now and look forward to every class. She guides me skillfully (and gently) through poses that are challenging but not painful. I leave each class feeling energized and relaxed. My flexibility and balance have greatly improved...in my hips, knees, shoulders, and spine. Kaiut yoga is a good complement to my strength training. Michelle is experienced in this practice but continues to study it and bring what she has learned to her own students. She is enthusiastic, articulate, and has a wonderful grasp of metaphor, which makes her classes truly a joy.”
