WARRIORS AT EASE
Warriors At Ease's approach to yoga and meditation rests on three pillars including:
Trauma and combat injury sensitive practices. Through our training, WAE teachers learn a basic understanding of the human nervous system and how it is impacted by stress, trauma, and combat injuries.
A military culture informed approach. WAE teachers learn about military culture and values so they can offer the practices in a way that minimizes cultural barriers and increases the relevance and accessibility of the practices.
Evidence-based practices. WAE teachers are trained to share physical movements, breath, and meditation practices that, according to solid research, help regulate the nervous system.
As of 2017, Warriors at Ease has trained a growing network 750+ teachers who serve the active duty military and veteran communities in the United States, Europe, Canada, Japan, and Australia.
