PRISON YOGA DHARMA LIBRARY

THE 10 YAMAS +
​12 NIYAMAS

Prison Yoga Dharma Principles

The10 Yamas and 12 Niyamas of Yoga
Created by Sarahjoy Marsh, MA, E-RYT 500, C-IAYT
offered in conversation our prison yoga volunteers and program graduates.
Join Sarahjoy and our prison yoga volunteers and prison yoga graduates in discussions on these dharmic principles. The 10 Yamas and 12 Niyamas are yoga's ethical precepts for living a life of dharma (wisdom, righteousness), seva (service), and karuna (compassion) was created as a course for our 200hr Yoga Alliance Registered Prison Yoga Teacher Training programs during the pandemic. In an unprecedented invitation from the Department of Corrections, we were uniquely authorized to provide this video training on Yoga Ethical Precepts: The Yamas + Niyamas for adults in custody.
The Prison Yoga Dharma Principles are also available to public students and yoga teachers who support our mission and vision for these life-changing programs. To have access to this vibrant learning library, please click the donate button below. ​
Our prison yoga teacher training program for incarcerated men and women provides a 200-hour teacher training for adults in custody to become certified yoga teachers on the inside.  These resident yoga teachers then provide yoga and mindfulness classes for their inside community, specifically for those even more vulnerable than themselves: residents in the mental health, behavioral, and addiction treatment units within the prison.
