Overview

With a focus on “unity in diversity” and the acceptance of different approaches to yoga, AUM hOMe Shala’s mission is to promote knowledge of the therapeutic benefits of yoga, through teaching, research, and training yoga teachers and yoga therapists. Committed to helping usher in a new era of peace, we strive to encourage people of all ages and abilities—including children, adolescents, those with disabilities or chronic health conditions, and other underserved populations—to embrace the practice of yoga as a basis for both individual health and a revitalized society. As a 501(c) 3 nonprofit, we further our mission, which is non-discriminatory and ecumenical in nature, through the expansion and development of programming, trainings, community clinics, symposiums, and outreach initiatives in universities, schools, and health-care facilities—all aimed at shifting paradigms through the use of yoga, yoga therapy, and meditation.
