Flexible is not the same as mobile

A Thursday talk episode. Putri explains the difference between flexibility and mobility, why bendy people get injured too, and how strength and control matter more than range.

Hips after a day of sitting

A guided 20-minute floor practice for tight hips, followed by Putri explaining why sitting shortens the front of the hip and why most people stretch the wrong thing.

About the show

Bend, Don't Break is a twice-weekly yoga and mobility show from Putri Anggraini, a Yogyakarta-trained teacher who spent a decade teaching retreats in Bali before moving home to teach office workers, motorbike couriers and retirees. The show has two formats. On Mondays, Putri records a 20-minute guided practice you can do on a bedroom floor: hips after sitting all day, shoulders after a week at a laptop, a breathing practice for a racing mind. On Thursdays she talks for 30 minutes about the why: what fascia is, why stretching alone does not fix stiffness, how mobility differs from flexibility, what yoga looks like without the aesthetics of social media. Putri is honest about her own injuries, patient with beginners and uninterested in handstands. The show is for anyone who feels older than their age when they get out of a chair. Bring a towel, not a mat.
