Crossover Yoga ProjectThe Crossover Yoga Project (CYP) is a nonprofit organization based in New York, with the mission to empower at-risk girls through trauma-informed yoga and art therapy to overcome trauma and guides them toward reclaiming their power onto a positive, constructive life path. CYP’s classes are co-taught by a yoga teacher and art therapist in residential treatment centers and facilities, runaway shelters, community centers and any space that is accessible to female trauma survivors. CYP’s program leads to establishing greater self-regulation, enhanced communication skills, better anger management, positive body image, relationship building skills & resiliency. Survivors are empowered - they learn to value themselves, and understand their own power to create change in their life. For more information, visit www.crossoveryogaproject.org
