We are proud to partner with Story Yoga to offer free recovery yoga at our Center. Our Center provides a space for prevention, support, connection, and recovery. The practice of yoga has become an essential complementary element in both substance use treatment programs and continuing care recovery actions. As a recovery tool, yoga provides a method for calming the mind while also improving physical fitness, both of which help maintain stability in recovery.
Story Yoga is also a yoga school that offers a fully funded 200-hour teacher training program to those in recovery. Their mission is to use yoga as a catalyst to create and sustain healthy communities.

About Our Y12SR Yoga Program
Krista Instructs Y12SR Yoga
Y12SR Yoga includes a recovery-themed, gentle practice, exploring movement and breath, followed by a 12-step discussion.
Any behavior we continuously do and get the same unsuccessful results is considered an addiction in Y12SR. Through doing Y12SR Yoga, we learn how to slowly cultivate new thoughts, patterns, and behaviors. Because of its many benefits for individuals in recovery, yoga has become a popular and integral part of a healthy lifestyle routine.
Classes are held online via Zoom:
Monday, 2:00 pm–3:30 pm
Wednesday, 7:30 pm–9:00 pm
