Vetoga
Get Involved
Editor's Note
This story is for veterans and their families, the larger military community, but also, for people like me.
When I first learned about VETOGA, I thought it sounded like a great concept—yoga for military veterans. The physical, mental and emotional benefits of yoga are well-documented, and veterans are uniquely positioned to experience these benefits.
But the real value of VETOGA's work goes far deeper. More than an outlet for stress or physical activity, VETOGA is a safe space—one that offers community, empathy and understanding.
So thank you, Justin, for your valuable and meaningful work. Thank you, Manny, Angelica, Gabby and Ashley for sharing so courageously and openly about your own personal journeys. And thank you, Jessica, Angela and Whitney for your creativity and dedication to capturing the grace and strength behind this powerful and compelling story.
