Critical Alignment Therapy Props

What are

Critical Alignment Yoga Therapy Props?

Critical Alignment Yoga Therapy Props are unique and effective props used when practicing Critical Alignment Yoga, a method developed by Gert Van Leeuwen. This practice brings ease and freedom into the body. Critical Alignment Yoga Therapy, often referred to as CAT Yoga, is a highly effective postural therapy system which helps to work through habitual movement patterns that can cause stress, pain and injury. 

With the use of these specialized props, slow movement and breath, the practice helps to increase mobility and strength, ultimately allowing the body to move in the way it is intended, intuitively and tension free.

These yoga props make it possible to mobilize seemingly inaccessible parts of the body and help release tension with gravity, pressure and relaxation. This practice is suitable for all ages, levels and abilities.

Our shop is based in the South West area of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. We can ship your order to you or you can save shipping charges and pick up your order from our shop. 

About Me

Deana Lee

My name is Deana Lee and I am the owner of this shop. I was introduced to Critical Alignment Yoga through a friend and fellow teacher when I was suffering with low back pain. I began practicing it and found it incredibly helpful in my own body. I had a herniated disc in my low back and CAT Yoga would help me recover from flair ups. I had microdiscectomy surgery in 2017. Regular CAT practice is part of my maintenance and prevention program and I have not had any back issues since 2017. I've been a yoga teacher since 2010 and am an active person and there is nothing like the Critical Alignment practice.

CAT Yoga was so beneficial for me that I trained and became a certified CAT Teacher in 2018 and have been teaching the practice regularly since that time. In 2021 I took over selling the CAT Yoga Props from Corae Russell.

One of my greatest joys is seeing the yoga practice work on students. To watch their bodies experience a sense of ease that they may not have felt for a long time. It really works and I'm so grateful to share the practice and the props.
