Yoga 4 Change is rooted in evidence-based research and best practices.

Our programming is evaluated to demonstrate impact.


What does this mean?

  • Our programs are informed by previous research and best practices.

  • Research informs our programming and our programming is creative and flexible; we meet the unique needs of each specific population.

  • We evaluate the impact of all our programming. We measure change in stress levels, mood and physical pain before and after each class. For some sites we additionally measure change before and after the curriculum is implemented.

  • While our programming is rooted in empirical research and best practices, we also value the lived experience and expertise of our incredible teachers. 

  • We value all types of research including qualitative research, quantitative research, review studies, randomized controlled trials, mixed methods, etc. 

  • While we value data, we center our students in our work, not the evidence.
