YOGA LEGION

Dedicated to raising awareness of the benefits of yoga for veterans and those who support them.

“If you can breathe, you can do yoga.”

John, Marine Veteran, Central Massachusetts

Founded in 2017 by veterans and their supporters, Yoga Legion began with a clear mission: to raise awareness of the holistic benefits of yoga for veterans. From the start, we’ve been committed to bringing yoga directly to veterans, active-duty service members, their families, and the broader community that stands with them.

Our Story

Yoga Legion became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2020 to make healing-centered wellness accessible to those who have served. In 2024, we expanded our mission with health coaching and resiliency training to further support veterans’ physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

We offer no-cost yoga classes in military bases, VFW halls, and open spaces—welcoming veterans, service members, and families. Our strength is in our shared practice and diverse community. Whoever you are, you’re always welcome on the mat.

Special thanks to John Lyon VFW Post 3150 for their ongoing partnership and for helping us reach more veterans through their space and newsletter.
