About this resource

About

Mind Body Solutions is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2002 by Matthew Sanford — a yoga teacher who has been paralyzed from the chest down since a car accident at age 13. Its mission is to transform trauma, loss, and disability into hope and potential by awakening the connection between mind and body.

What It Does

Through its MBSOnline program, Mind Body Solutions provides free live adaptive yoga classes several times a week to participants around the world. Classes are led by instructors trained in the organization's approach, which emphasizes embodied connection over physical performance. The organization also trains yoga teachers and healthcare professionals to integrate mind-body principles into their work.

Who It Helps

People living with paralysis, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, stroke, limb loss, chronic pain, and other disabilities or trauma-related conditions. All classes are free of charge and open to any ability level.
