About Undod Yoga

Built from lived experience. Offered with an open hand.

A Journey That Started at Over 300 Pounds

There was a time when I couldn't imagine yoga being for someone like me. My body felt like a problem to be solved rather than a home to return to. I was heavy, uncomfortable in my own skin, and disconnected from the idea that movement could ever feel anything other than punishment.

The turning point came through fitness and health training at Community Care College in Tulsa, and through the teachings of Dr Karen Wells on Udemy — where I discovered that yoga, practised with compassion and intelligence, could be a path back to yourself. Not a performance. Not a before-and-after. Just a quiet, consistent practice of coming home.

I lost weight. But more importantly, I found something far more valuable: a relationship with my body built on patience rather than shame.

Learning to Love Getting Healthy

I'm AuDHD — autistic and ADHD — and I know first-hand what it feels like when your nervous system doesn't cooperate with a world that wasn't designed for it. I know what it's like to start and stop, to struggle with consistency, to feel overwhelmed in spaces that feel too loud, too fast, too judgmental.

Undod Yoga was built from all of that. Every class, every modification, every carefully chosen word is shaped by my own experience of being a person who didn't fit the image of a yoga practitioner — and finding the practice anyway.

The Welsh word undod means unity. That's the whole philosophy: mind and body as one thing, not two things at war. You don't fix yourself to deserve wellness. You simply begin — wherever you are, exactly as you are.
