yoga4cancer is an evidenced informed Oncology Yoga method designed to manage the physical and emotional impact of cancer, improve quality of life and daily functioning, reduce cancer recurrence and other co-morbidities.
Our organization provides free resources for survivors, training programs for high-quality professionals and advocates for Oncology Yoga through outreach, education and research.
Today, with nearly 3,000 trained oncology yoga professionals, our community is bringing Oncology Yoga to survivors in hospitals, cancer centers, yoga studios, communities and homes across the globe. But access is not equal. Cancer outcomes are shaped by race, gender, income, geography, and healthcare access.
That’s why equity is at the core of our mission.
The financial toxicity of cancer is one of its most devastating side effects, and underserved communities bear the heaviest burden. Our programs work to remove barriers—cost, location, representation, and awareness—so every survivor has the opportunity to heal.
Our Vision: Oncology Yoga is prescribed and available to all those touched by cancer, regardless of the economic, social, racial, or geographic barriers they may face.
