Medical Therapeutic Yoga Community Projects

Karma yoga project

Vidhi Vyas-Desai

2022

My project was held in 2 groups.
1. Chair yoga group: online classes and in-person classes
2. Yoga for spine health group : online only
I held total 4 classes for each group. There were up to 4 participants in each group for both online and in-person classes. In-person portion of project was held in my own house. Each class was 45-50 minutes longer in duration.
SF-36 was used for pre-test and post-test. HEP was individualized for each participants and was sent in video form.
I felt so humble by receiving very good feedback from all my participants that how satisfactory their experience was doing medical therapeutic yoga with me.

I enjoyed everything about this project. My participants were very easy to work with in terms of obtaining intake forms and consent forms from them. It took some reminders to obtain SF-36 pre and post. The most challenging part of the project was the on-line portion of it. Simply because all my participants were from different part of the world. So it was very challenging to come up with same days where everyone was available and it was also challenging in terms of different time zones. It took some time to figure it all out when everyone's availability matched but it all worked out in the end and I was able to take all 4 classes. For future, I would do it slightly differently where I would rather group my participants geographically to make it convenient for everyone.
