YAMA’s Unique Approach
YAMA Foundation takes a unique approach to facilitating wellbeing through yoga, expressive arts and mediation. Our approach is low-cost, low-tech and designed to be broadly deployed for intervention, rehabilitation, and/or prevention. Our programmes are designed to be inclusive, accessible, culturally sensitive and trauma aware. They are supported by research protocols to measure progress. Our teachers hold higher level qualification, are first-aid certified and undergo regular background checks.
