Yoga USC is a home base for all yoga-related activities on the USC campus. It serves as a resource guide for existing departmental classes, an educational tool for greater understanding of yoga’s many benefits, and will ultimately offer specialized classes designed to bring together students, faculty and staff. If you’ve been wanting to try yoga, and wondering where to start… you’ve come to the right place.
