Moderate Aerobic Activity Through Yoga (MAT)

Inclusion Criteria:

• Assessed as physical activity readiness i. For those 65-70 years of age. We will also use the Physical Readiness Questionnaire Plus-this "plus" version was developed to be more inclusive of those with limited mobility and not to over-exclude older adults in other clinical trials. If a participant fails the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire + (PARQ+), a physician's approval will be mandatory ii. For those 70-85 years of age. Complete PARQ+ as well as physician approval.
• Comprehension of English language
• Able to physically attend class at the yoga studio

Exclusion Criteria:

• Contraindication to physical activity including but not limited to people who can independently walk and stand. This will be part of the verbal screening protocol using Falls Efficacy Scale (FES). This scale has a minimum of 16 (no concern about falling) to maximum of 64 (severe concern about falling). Participants with FES score > 23 will be deemed high concern about falling and be excluded from participation.
• Assesses the presence and severity of 13 psychiatric symptom domains that cut across diagnostic boundaries. These domains include depression, anger, mania, anxiety, somatic symptoms, sleep disturbance, psychosis, obsessive thoughts and behaviors, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, substance use (e.g., alcohol, nicotine, prescription medication, and illicit substance use), personality functioning, dissociation, and cognition/memory problems in adults. Level 1 of this measure includes 23 questions across the 13 domains.
