It isn’t impossible to follow your dreams after all the time you’ve spent incarcerated. Life isn’t easy, there’s no manual on how to do things..We live and we Learn threw trial and era.. Stay well my friend and remember who you were before all this happened,, E-ya
I think yoga is awesome, and I appreciate your interest in it for the vets. Group exercises sound kinda fun. What about trying some tai chi?
Just as a friendly warning: there are some super conservatives who may refuse to do yoga or tai chi due to its ancient religious ties to Hinduism, Buddhism, and so on.
If this causes unwanted conflict amongst your group, suggest pilates to them. Unfortunately, there is no evidence to suggest that pilates is the same or better than the various forms of yoga and tai chi. Unlike yoga and tai chi, pilates only helps with abdominal muscle toning if the person is already healthy and fit. But pilates does include stationary stretches and breathing techniques that may provide some stress relief, if nothing else.
