Sleep doesn’t always come easy when you’re hypermobile. But we’ve found our ways. 🦓

It’s World Sleep Day and we’re celebrating the very specific, very valid, very us bedtime routines that help zebras actually rest. Because for us, a good night’s sleep doesn’t just happen. It takes preparation, the right tools, and a whole lot of figuring out what works for your body.

Pregnancy pillow? Compression gloves AND an eye mask? A Squishmallow for joint support? Honestly, we love to see it.

Count up everything that applies to you and drop your score in the comments! 👇
🌙 0–4: Sleep Explorer
🌙 5–8: Comfort Curator
🌙 9–12: Restful Pro
🌙 13–16: Sleep Champion

And if sleep and fatigue are something you’re working on, we have a whole collection of classes on the platform to support you. Link in bio. 💚

Progress not perfection. 🌿

In a world that glorifies pushing harder and bouncing back faster, we do things differently here.

Progress at The Zebra Club looks like honouring a rest day. Noticing a little more ease in your body. Choosing the modification without guilt.

Small, consistent, compassionate movement is how we build strength that lasts. That’s the Integral Movement Method. That’s what we’re here for. 💚

What does progress look like for you this week? Share below.

Women with EDS and hypermobility are diagnosed at nearly 2.5x the rate of men. And so many more go unrecognised for years.

This International Women’s Day, we want to celebrate every woman in this community. Whether you have a diagnosis, are still searching for one, or are somewhere in between, your experience is valid. You belong here.
We see you. And you are not alone.

Drop a comment below so we can celebrate you today.

If you have EDS or hypermobility, you may notice your calf muscles carry a lot of tension. A hypermobile body learns to grip, and it is not always easy to let go. Poor gait patterns, ankle instability, POTS and many other aspects of life with hypermobility can contribute to this.

We’ve added a brand new guided meditation to the Targeted Release collection inside Calm Your
Mind, our dedicated audio meditation section in the app.
It takes you through a gentle release of the lower legs and calves, and explores the role of the feet in letting that tension go.

Find it in your audio meditations inside The Zebra Club app. Our audio meditations are quite unique as they are designed for the Hypermobile body.

We ❤️💜❤️ Glimmers on our platform. Our mindful, thoughtful way of moving encourages being present in the moment. We pause, and we pay attention, we breathe. We become more aware of the Glimmers.

What are your Glimmers today?

A simple nervous system regulation tip that takes seconds to practice!

If you live with hypermobility, EDS, or a chronic condition, your nervous system is often working overtime.

Glimmers are micro-moments of regulation that can help bring it back to calm, and you can train yourself to notice them.

Polyvagal Theory clinician Deb Dana, LCSW describes them as small moments of safety and wellbeing that appear in everyday life. The more you practise noticing them, the more you find.

Swipe through for the full glimmer practice and save this post for when you need it 😌.

Tell us one glimmer from this week in the comments 👇
Nervous system regulation is at the heart of everything we do at The Zebra Club 🦓. Our founder always says if your nervous system isn’t on board, it’s going to be very difficult to make a lasting change.

“I know I should exercise, but it always makes me worse.” If that’s you, then this is for you. 🦓

Exercise with hypermobility and POTS isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing it differently.

In our latest Zebra Club meetup, was joined by our Scientific Adviser, Dr. Leslie Russek, Professor of physical therapy.
They discussed exercise modification and how to
make it work for your body.

The short version: most people struggle because they skip the foundations & jump into strength work too fast. Think of it like a building. You’d want solid foundations right?

We’re supporting International Wheelchair Day. Established in 2008 by wheelchair advocate Steve Wilkinson, today highlights independence, resilience and the importance of accessible environments for people who use wheelchairs.

For people with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), hypermobility, POTS, and chronic illness,
mobility can fluctuate.

Using a wheelchair isn’t “giving up.” It can be a way to protect joints, conserve energy, and prevent symptom flares.

Adaptive mobility can be part of pacing. For many in our community, walking some days and using a wheelchair on others is a sustainable way to stay engaged in life.

Mobility aids don’t reduce independence but they support it. We love how this was highlighted in the recent show Runaway. The actress who plays Anya, has EDS in real life and is an ambulatory wheelchair user, meaning she sometimes walks and sometimes uses a wheelchair depending on symptoms, pain, fatigue, and energy levels.

The show doesn’t explicitly name or explain Anya’s condition or wheelchair use. This choice was intentional, reflecting how many people with disabilities often live their lives without constant explanation or medical exposition.

Anya’s character brings to life the real-life experience of many of us with a fluctuating condition that mirrors how many people with EDS and other chronic illnesses navigate the world.

Fluctuating mobility is real. And every version of it is valid.

Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome isn’t one condition. It’s 13. And on Rare Disease Day, that distinction matters more than ever 🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓🦓

hEDS and HSD together are estimated to affect 1 in 500 people. That’s not rare, that’s one of the most underdiagnosed conditions of our time.

But most types of EDS are genuinely, devastatingly rare. Some types have fewer than 30 cases ever documented worldwide. Most doctors will never see a single patient in their entire career with some of these rarer types.

Today, we stand with every single person across the entire Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome spectrum.
The ones still waiting for a name for what they’re living with. The ones whose type is so rare their doctor has never seen it. The ones who need more funding, more research, and more urgency. Now.

🦓 Every stripe matters.

If you’re living with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), standing workouts can trigger lightheadedness, a racing heart, and symptom crashes.

That doesn’t mean movement isn’t for you. It means movement needs to be accessible.

Inside The Zebra Club, we design exercise for people with POTS, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), and hypermobility who need adaptable positions, nervous system support, and energy-aware pacing.

Accessible movement is about working with your body and not pushing through symptoms.
We can help you move safely on low energy days and build overall stability safely.

Download The Zebra Club and start where your body is today. Created by who lives with hEDS & POTS. She gets it!

Gentle intentional movement can actually help relieve pain and calm your nervous system, without needing to pushing harder.

If you live with EDS, HSD, or hypermobility, the right kind of movement can make a real difference in your day-to-day comfort.

✨Explore classes like our Stomach Comfort class in the Pain Management section and see how gentle movement and breathwork can help with pain management.

Is massage safe for EDS & HSD?

That’s what we asked our expert speaker .therapies last week at our members meet up.

Here are a few of the highlights from her educational talk. Members can watch this again and enjoy the self massage techniques Jess showed us 😌.

Our app is a key educational and clinical hub where you will find the very best experts in one place. We aim to make it easier for you to get the answers you need.
