"Once I went into that room, you lose yourself"

The Phoenix Trust is a charity whose outreach into prisons includes running yoga classes in Hampshire and Dorset prisons.

They send teachers into prisons and encourages in-mates to take up yoga, often with rehabilitating results.

Peter (not his real name) has turned his life around after leaving a prison in the south, and he attributes a significant portion of his transformation to learning the practice of yoga.
