Yoga for Young Adults Affected by Cancer: Exploring Implementation and Effectiveness of an Online Program

Summary:

We developed and piloted a yoga program, which is now ready for implementation and evaluation. This single-group, mixed-methods project will explore effectiveness and implementation of the yoga program.
