On the Horizon<br />

In addition to improving, sustaining, and expanding our current programs, we are<br />

considering or in the process of developing new initiatives to further support<br />

warriors and their families. Projects include:<br />

• Updating our teacher training curriculum and launching it on a world-class, on-line teaching<br />

portal in fall of 2017 in partnership with Yoga International.<br />

• Expanding Train, Teach & Transform to at least 4 new regions in 2018<br />

• Broadening the scope of our offerings at the United States Military Academy<br />

• Expanding our mind-body programs to more colleges, universities, and service academies<br />

• Partnering with major research organizations to study the effects of using yoga and meditation<br />

as adjunct therapy for service members and veterans with sleep issues, chronic pain, PTSD,<br />

and other common health concerns<br />

• Developing Warriors at <strong>Ease</strong> Kids, an emerging mind-body program specifically for children of<br />

service members and veterans<br />

• Working with leaders within Department of Defense to further integrate Warriors at <strong>Ease</strong><br />

teachers into pain management clinics, unit PT programs, and other areas where our teachers<br />

can be effective<br />

• Working with Department of Veterans Affairs to fill newly dedicated positions for “yoga<br />

instructors” in the VA system with our Warriors at <strong>Ease</strong> teachers<br />

• Establishing Warriors at <strong>Ease</strong> affiliates in rural areas where veterans may be underserved<br />
