The study offers insights into the implementation challenges and feasibility of a comprehensive yoga adherence program. It highlights factors influencing participants' adherence and future practice preferences, contributing to effective strategies for promoting regular yoga practice and integrating it into wellness routines. The findings emphasize the need for tailored support to address diverse barriers to adherence and preferences for yoga formats. While there was significant adherence, understanding these factors is crucial for tailoring future programs to enhance participation and adherence.
