WELCOME, I’M

YOGI AARON.

Chances are you found your way here because you’re looking for a yoga teacher training immersion. Or maybe, you’re living with pain and someone recommended me or I came up in an online search. Maybe you visited my yoga retreat center in Costa Rica, Blue Osa, or you listened to my podcast ‘Stop Stretching’. However you found your way here — I am grateful you did.

My site is full of useful information to guide you in the next step on your journey of living a pain-free life and discovering and manifesting your life purpose. If there is one thing I’ve learned in my 30+ years of yoga practice and teaching — it’s that we are filled with limitless potential — sometimes we just need a little guidance along our way. I hope I can be that lighthouse for you.

DARE TO LIVE PAIN-FREE.

A REVOLUTIONARY NEW WAY TO PRACTICE YOGA

Applied Yoga Anatomy + Muscle Activation™, created by Yogi Aaron, is a revolutionary way to practice yoga that focuses on activating and engaging muscles rather than stretching them. This yoga methodology reduces pain and risk of injury while increasing range of motion, muscle strength, stability, and alignment.

I don’t believe stretching is ever the answer. That’s because stretching makes you weak. It’s true… stretching debilitates muscle function.

It’s time to stop the flexibility madness.

It’s my mission to help you become pain-free because life is too short to live in the shadows. Learn more today:

SUCCESS STORIES

“After long periods with chronic pain, trying different treatments, and doing a lot of stretching, I signed up for the 200 YTT and did the Free 15-day challenge in advance. I am amazed and so grateful for how quickly the muscle activation and relaxation techniques stopped my pain and tension. ”

~ Charlotte Haughem, Student from Norway

“Every beginner and seasoned yogi alike could benefit from Yogi Aaron’s knowledge of Applied Yoga Anatomy + Muscle Activation™. By learning AYAMA, you not only strengthen muscles, but you teach them to function correctly, efficiently, and effectively.”

~ Dr. Steve Graef, PhD, Owner Mindurance, LLC Licensed Counseling and Sport Psychologist

“The Yogi Club Chakra Course is a great learning tool to dive deeper into learning about the chakras. What I love the most are the asana and sitting practices that Yogi Aaron teaches in relation to each chakra. Lots of knowledge to be gained in this course and I love Aaron’s passion on the subject of chakras!”

~ Summer DeBue, Student + Owner of In Tune Yoga

STOP STRETCHING.

A new yogic approach to master your body and live pain-free.

This book is for anyone who wants to restore balance to their body through yoga and begin their pain-free journey.

Yogi Aaron is no stranger to pain. For decades, he seriously abused his body in the name of fitness and yoga. After a brush with a spinal fusion, Yogi Aaron began to ask, “Why are we stretching, and how much flexibility do we really need?”

In his quest to answer this question, Yogi Aaron discovered a shocking truth: The fitness industry’s obsession with stretching is causing unnecessary, catastrophic pain and injury. It’s time to stop the flexibility madness!

STOP STRETCHING.

This is not a book about yoga. Plenty of those already exist. This is a book about you; more aptly: Who are you without your pain?

I believe with every fiber of my body that each of us is extraordinary, here on earth to fulfill a unique purpose. Unfortunately, achieving our life’s calling becomes remarkably more complicated when we’re in pain. I know because I, too, have lived with chronic pain — debilitating, frustrating, agonizing pain that distracted me from my soul’s calling for far too long.

“Yogi Aaron has been a mentor for more years than I would like to mention. He is my first “go to” when I have an issue I cannot work out.”

~ David Corder, Perfect Fit Wellness Center

I’m a little different from most yoga teachers…

Since the late 1990s, I’ve dedicated my life to sharing the joys of yoga. I’ve spent years studying with Yoga Masters in the Himalayas and NYC.

I started The Yogi Club to share the joys of yoga with as many people as possible — to help you live a pain-free life so that you can tap into your limitless potential.

We’re a new breed of yoga students, ready to swap hyper-flexibility for strength, mobility, and stability. Ready to join us?
