Yoga World Reach is a Colorado non-profit devoted to bringing joy, hope, and Yoga to under-served populations throughout the local and global communities. They have been working with survivors of domestic violence, people with disabilities, orphans, and those with substance abuse challenges in places as distant as India, and as remote as Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.

In Yoga Philosophy, the word seva is used to mean: selfless service, work that is given universally, service that is performed for the benefit of others without attachment to the outcome. Seva is the cornerstone of Yoga World Reach. Yoga World Reach seeks to promote global peace through individual empowerment using yoga practice, meditation practice and alternative therapies such as art and music therapy. The programs that they are presenting to disenfranchised, marginalized and economically challenged populations, provide a tool to help them help themselves. Through yoga practice they have the opportunity to improve the life and health of themselves, their families and their communities.

Yoga World Reach is organized exclusively for charitable, scientific and educational purposes, more specifically to perform the following:

• to research and practice ways that yoga, meditation, and alternative therapies can inclusively serve the global community.
• to co-create yoga programs for correctional facilities, crisis prevention centers, women’s shelters, schools, health care facilities and practitioners, rehabilitation centers, homeless shelters, and those with special needs.
• to serve as a link between yoga teachers and opportunities for seva via their seva database.
