About Our Recovery Yoga Program

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 the investigative work of Y12SR Yoga, we learn how to slowly cultivate new thoughts, patterns and behaviors.
Classes are held online via Zoom:
Monday, 2:00 pm–3:30 pm
Tuesday, 5:30 pm–7:00 pm
