Welcome to yogaHOPE
yogaHOPE, is a non-profit outreach organization dedicated to establishing rehabilitative yoga programs in residential facilities for underserved women in substance abuse recovery, poor and homeless women, and victims of domestic violence. The practice of yoga has been shown to produce positive motivational change by helping women regain their vital center of energy, satisfaction and stability. It can help reduce low self-esteem and poor body image, and greatly improves a woman's sense of personal empowerment, yet female populations who could benefit from this practice don’t have access to it!

Amy's Story
If you told me when I was a little girl that my life would be the way it is, I would think you were crazy! I mean a little girl might think it’s great that I am 27 and I don’t drink or do any drugs today, but if I told her that I was once an IV heroin addict she would probably be traumatized.
