A program in Peoria is working to bring yoga to the community as a tool to fight the cycle of violence and trauma in the city. Soulside Healing Arts provides classes with instructors who are trauma-informed on a sliding scale in their downtown Peoria studio. They also provide classes in elementary schools, churches, and community centers through their “yoga corps” program.
