WELCOME

Welcome to American Yoga!

Here's part of my story...For years I was teaching and practicing Vinyasa Yoga and falling more and more in love with it. There was only one problem: MY WRIST PAIN! After every chaturanga, after every side plank pose, after every crow pose, I would have to stop and relieve my achy wrists by rolling them and counter stretching. My discomfort became so distracting that it was impossible for me to stay in my flow and enjoy that connected rhythm that IS Vinyasa. How was I gonna keep this up?
Well, at the same time I was also dabbling in floor tumbling and came upon a wrist support worn by gymnasts. It seemed a little overkill, but I thought I would try it. At this point, I was desperate. I was instantly amazed at what a difference I felt. This was unlike anything I had ever worn! I decided to bring this outstanding product to the Yoga world, hence, POWER PAWS were born. I must tell you straight: This is a serious support that will bring you ultimate relief. I believe (I have a background in Exercise Science) that unnatural wrist extension taken in many yoga poses is not healthy for some of our wrists. I have tiny wrists and the connective tissue can not support all that hyper-extension! When I tell you Power Paws saved my Vinyasa, that is no joke. PS...I have a customer/friend that wears them for Cross-Fit, Jet Skiing (yes, you can get'em wet), any other sport when she feels her wrist might be compromised.
There is a 30 day, 100% refund return policy! If you try them and find they are not for you, send them back to us and your purchase will be refunded; no questions asked.
From the Power Paw project, other products were developed, all of which you can check out on the product page.

Teaching Yoga is a lifetime of service. I believe it is the responsibility of a Yoga Teacher to present classes full of passion, knowledge, understanding, and grace. My mission is to teach ~YOU~ how to give of yourself to others with a confident, easy style based in a solid education.
