Feasibility of Yoga for Type-2 Diabetes
This study will randomize 90 adults with type-2 diabetes (T2DM) from three different states (RI, MA, and AL) to a 12-week program of either (1) Iyengar yoga or (2) a Standard Exercise program. Follow up assessments occur at 3 and 6-months post-intervention. Results of this study will determine the ability to deliver these interventions with strong rigor and fidelity across multiple sites and will establish the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention across racially and ethnically diverse populations. The study will also examine factors (e.g., outcome expectations, barriers to home practice) that promote long-term adherence to yoga and/or physical activity.
