Prison Yoga + Meditation

The project

Prison Yoga + Meditation is committed to bringing trauma-informed yoga, loving kindness, mindfulness, and meditations, as well as self-compassion and breathing practices to incarcerated people here in Aruba so they can cope, heal, and restore their lives and their families.

In KIA we offer mind-clearing journeys of trauma informed yoga and powerful and diverse meditations so that our students can better cope with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Post Incarceration Syndrome.
