PhysioYoga is a yoga practice created in 2001 by Jesse Winder, a certified yoga instructor, and Kim Amlong, a physical therapist. PhysioYoga is currently being taught in Cambridge, Massachusetts. PhysioYoga combines the ancient hatha yoga traditions with modern-day, evidence-based scientific research in biomechanics and sports medicine. PhysioYoga classes are heavily focused on three issues: proper anatomical alignment, joint protection and health, and effective body mechanics.

These areas of emphasis make the PhysioYoga style especially appropriate for injury prevention and for achieving an optimal balance between strength and flexibility.
