Yoga 4 The World, 501(c)(3) is a non-profit organization that aims to create a safer and more supportive world for everyone. Our mission is to ensure that yoga and meditation are accessible and equitable so that all communities are empowered to enhance their mental and physical well being. We have one active chapter in Philadelphia (Yoga 4 Philly), and we have one brewing in the San Francisco-Oakland area (Yoga 4 The Bay).
We enable a vast audience of individuals to stay active, healthy and prioritize their mental health. Through tailored yoga and meditation, we empower individuals to cope with stress, trauma, chronic pain and other disabilities. Yoga 4 The World works with kids, senior citizens, college students, expecting mothers, the trauma population, individuals with Parkinson's disease, and corporations.
Our outreach at Yoga 4 Philly extends to Philadelphia, Bucks, Montgomery, Delaware, and other surrounding counties.

Steven has completed his Bachelor's in Religious Studies, a Master's of Arts in Christian Counseling, and has a Master's of Divinity in Missional Theology. He is a certified yoga teacher for many forms of yoga, including trauma-informed yoga and yoga for Parkinson's disease.
From following Yoga with Adriene yoga practices on YouTube to actively being a part of the Sync Yoga and Wellness family in Dallas, TX, Steven found a vehicle in Yoga & Meditation that brought him into the light. As Steven found peace, healing, and self-love on the yoga mat, he felt convicted that yoga should be accessible to everyone.
That conviction led him to launch the Philadelphia chapter of Yoga 4 the World on April 23rd, 2019. Also known as Yoga 4 Philly, or Y4P, this chapter is dedicated to creating a safer, more supportive society in Philadelphia. Steven's vision did not stop at Philadelphia. Yoga 4 The World is an organization that aims to create a safer and more supportive world for everyone.
Despite being busy leading this organization, his love for teaching yoga does not stop him from actively supporting his mission from a yoga mat.
