PIVOT Yoga is a natural fit for Hatha, Iyengar, and Vinyasa styles. Frankly, any style that you can do at
home and where it would be helpful to have your body visualized on a screen would make sense.
Forms of hot yoga, however, are probably not a good fit, mainly because most people simply can't do
them at home, and also because our clothes are designed to be used at room temperature
Can I use the clothes without the app?
You certainly can. Most of our early testers rave about the fit, support, and feel of our clothes. And they

To discuss it thoroughly, we'd start by saying that there are three main safety concerns that we think
yogis typically have in mind when they think about PIVOT Yoga:
1.
Electronics - Is it harmful to my body to wear electronics while I'm doing yoga?
2.
Batteries - Can the batteries in the clothes harm me?
3.
Physical Injury - Will I hurt myself trying to do something PIVOT Yoga asks me to do?
Let's discuss these in turn.
1. ELECTRONICS
In the world of consumer electronics, there are two main ways to measure the impact on humans. The
first is the amount of energy being wirelessly emitted by the device, and the second related issue is the
rate at which that emitted energy is absorbed by the body.
Total power output is measured in milliwatts, which is written "mW". Keep in mind that PIVOT Yoga
clothes consist of ordinary sensors, which emit no wireless energy at all, and then main units, of which
