To make Yoga and Meditation education available to all prisoners in New Zealand Prisons.

Yoga Education in Prisons Trust - YEPT recognizes that the restrictive environment of a prison may be more conducive to internalisation and contemplation. Therefore it can be regarded as an opportunity to use the time-tested techniques and tools of yoga and meditation for personal growth and well-being. We provide education for prisoners and offenders in the practices and techniques of yoga and meditation with the purpose to enable personal change and development. We also provide released prisoners with ongoing education and training in the practices and techniques of yoga and meditation.
