As a Veteran owned, inclusive, & trauma informed yoga studio, we tend to do things a little different. As we process trauma through the mind, we have to process it through the body. Whether we’ve been in a vehicle accident, lost a loved one, or anything in between, our body keeps the score. Our nervous system is wired like branches of tree. And when we experience a traumatic event, those branches get pruned. But those branches can regrow, and that’s what we focus on at Sanford Yoga & Community Center (SYCC).
By using these evidence-based modalities that have been thoroughly tested and peer reviewed, we offer self-regulation techniques that use the body and the breath as the vehicle to facilitate healing. This then leads to a sense of relaxation, calmness, greater mobility, and an overall improvement in ones quality of life.
With a diverse staff, we tailor our offerings to kids, adults, Service Members, Veterans, Law Enforcement Officers, First Responders, the LGBTQ Community, Justice Involved, students, teachers, sexual assault/domestic violence survivors, pre/post-surgery candidates, amputees, athletes and much more.
Each population has a unique need. Some need a more dynamic practice, and others more restorative. No matter what the group needs, our objective is always to help regrow those neural pathways, allowing our clients to gain more autonomy over their minds and bodies.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to serve you and we can’t wait to learn more about how we can help.

Looking to build strength, break a sweat, shake the sillies out, and connect with your community?
Our Heated Flow classes bring a little extra warmth and energy to your yoga practice!
Our studio is heated to a comfortable 85–90°F — not quite a traditional hot yoga studio, but trust us, you'll still sweat! 💦
These classes offer a more dynamic, energizing flow than some of our other offerings, combining movement, breath, strength, and a little playful challenge.
But here's the thing: Yoga isn't a competition, and your neighbor's mat isn't your measuring stick.
In our welcoming, trauma-informed space, you're encouraged to show up exactly as you are, move at your own pace, and listen to what YOUR body needs.
We offer plenty of modifications and options throughout class, making Heated Flow approachable and supportive for all experience levels.
Whether you're looking to challenge yourself, release some stress, or simply find your people, there's a place for you here.
All bodies. All levels. All welcome. 💜
