Our 45 hour certificate program is required training to provide safe and effectively yoga interventions for cancer survivors in your community. Over 2,600 professionals have completed the program and working in hospitals, cancer centers, yoga & healthcare studios and privately.  Together, we are helping cancer survivors reduce the short and long term side-effects of cancer and it’s treatments and, ultimately, reduce their risk of recurrence. With 40% of the worlds population facing a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime, there is greater need for more compassionate and trained professionals to join our community.

Evidence informed. The yoga4cancer methodology is based on the growing body of evidence to therapeutic effects of yoga interventions for cancer patients and survivors. The 435 research studies that have been conducted on yoga and cancer provide the strong foundation of the method and training. Moreover, yoga4cancer is currently participating in several research projects to cement the evidence and provide quantifiable evidence of why our specialized yoga needs to be part of every cancer survivor’s health plan.

The y4c methodology is for experienced yoga or healthcare professionals seeking to support patients and survivors at all stages and all cancer types. The evidence informed method is an adaptable, active vinyasa style that encourages movement coordinated with breath accompanied with well-supported restorative poses to ensure a cancer survivor achieves the maximum benefits from yoga. The active element is aimed at achieving the guidelines from the American Cancer Society and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to reduce cancer recurrence or the development of other life-threatening diseases. The blend of active and restorative provides an unlimited options for professionals to meet each cancer survivor where they are on any given day.  The training includes:

  • The physics and physiology of yoga

  • Facts and research about cancer and it’s treatments

  • Short and long term side-effects and how yoga can mitigate or reduce the impact

  • Appropriate and inappropriate poses

  • Method and practice on how to talk about cancer and support survivors

  • Guidance on how to create an effective and safe class or practice
