Ep. 38 Mobility Over Flexibility: Jeff Bailey’s Bold Rethink of Yoga & Healing


Listen Later

In this eye-opening episode of *Uncommonly Remarkable*, we’re joined by Jeff Bailey—creator of Avita Yoga and author of *Mobility for Life*. With a background in Rolfing and decades of yoga practice, Jeff challenges conventional wisdom about flexibility, stretching, and joint care.


🧠 Learn why:

- Muscles aren’t designed to stretch—but joints crave pressure

- Mobility and flexibility are not the same thing

- Pain, approached correctly, can actually be a powerful healing signal

- Healing your body starts with tuning into subtle intuitive nudges


Jeff shares the fascinating story of how a ski injury changed everything, why he walked away from a packed yoga studio to go online, and how his unique method helps people maintain independence and avoid joint replacements—especially after 50.
