What we do
YAMA Foundation believes that all people have the fundamental right to feel good in their bodies, peaceful in their minds, live colourful lives, and be part of a caring community -- no matter their background or ability. As a registered charity, YAMA Foundation removes barriers to wellbeing through yoga, art, and meditation therapy programmes that are accessible, rehabilitative, inclusive, and trauma-informed. Since 2016, we have been providing accessible wellbeing services to our city’s most vulnerable populations. Our work spans three core service areas: (1) people with disabilities, special needs (PWD/SEN) and/or chronic illness; (2) people living in poverty; and (3) people living with mental health issues. ● Video introduction - https://youtu.be/ik7SZgyKAe4
