Practicing yoga is both a physical endeavor and a personal journey for any student. Beginning yoga requires personal commitment as well as support and guidance. If you live with a disability, it is especially important to believe yoga is not only possible for you, but that you can experience its wonder and benefits just like anyone else

Find a yoga teacher

  • Find a teacher who has completed adaptive yoga training with Mind Body Solutions.
  • The International Association of Yoga Therapists provides a list of registered yoga therapists.
  • Contact rehabilitation centers in your area. Many centers now offer adaptive yoga classes.
  • Contact local yoga studios and ask if anyone teaches people living with disabilities.
  • If you are not comfortable with yoga, explore other mind-body practices such as meditation or Tai Chi. The most important thing is to begin connecting your mind and body in whatever way works best for you.
