Welcome to Yoga for the People!
YFP works with health and human service providers and yoga teachers to create sustainable yoga programs for communities in need. We are a grassroots, volunteer-run organization that relies on the support of the yoga community to match volunteer instructors with nonprofits who help unserved, underserved or at-risk people and to provide community-based donation only classes. In addition, YFP provides support and education for yoga teachers choosing the path of yoga in service to those in need, and research and evaluation on the benefits of yoga.
YFP was founded in 2006 to foster wellness for all communities by providing quality, accessible, community-centered yoga programs and trainings. YFP believes that when people practice yoga, they choose balanced, joyous, nourishing and loving lives. In 2008, we successfully obtained our 501(c)3 nonprofit status. In fiscal year 2010-11, we provided agency- and community-based classes for partner nonprofit organizations and low-income communities, serving 2,208 people who could benefit from yoga but may not have equal access.
Please explore our website to find what can best serve your needs. Whether you are interested in a free or donation-based community class, a teacher looking to serve, a studio interested in partnering with us, or an organization or company that would like to bring yoga to your clients or staff, we would love to hear from you.
