From 1999 through 2019, the Yoga Research Society and Jefferson's Myrna Brind Center of Integrative Medicine (now the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health) presented MEDICAL YOGA, an annual Sunday event at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. Since COVID, the program has been given as a Sunday morning Zoom online each spring. Dr. Vijayendra Pratap, Founder/Director of the Yoga Research Society, leads a Classical Yoga practice and discussion. A guest presentation by a respected clinician or researcher in some aspect of medicine, nutrition or other wellness related area completes the program.
For the YRS community, MEDICAL YOGA is an opportunity to spend the morning with Dr. Pratap and each other, host a memorable guest Speaker, and celebrate the coming of spring.
