Yoga in Detention Centres

We have been sharing Yoga with people of all ages inside detention centres since 2015 including:

  • Refugee and Asylum seeking women held in detention

  • Men's groups in Maximum security detention centres

  • Teenage girls in Juvenile Justice facilities

Participants in our detention programs reported

  • Improved sleep

  • Reduced pain

  • Greater sense of calm and relaxation

"I don't feel like I'm in detention. I feel normal"
