My project is to understand the barriers and facilitators to yoga participation among Latine college students. Yoga is often promoted as a tool for improving physical health, mental well-being, and stress management. This research aims to contribute to broader efforts towards health equity and inclusive wellness of yoga practices in the Latine community. Our findings can help inform future research and interventions that make wellness practices more culturally responsive, accessible, and relevant to historically underrepresented populations.
