More black men embracing yoga to ease emotional stress

Still, after Groden’s death, Doucette has become a certified yoga instructor who teaches wellness, yoga and meditation to black men "in the heart of the hood" in Dallas.

Doucette has joined a growing number of black yoga practitioners who view the ancient discipline as a way for black men to address the emotional and physical health disparities of their community.

To attract black men to yoga and its physical and emotional health benefits, black instructors said they have created spaces that are culturally sensitive, affordable and in urban communities where studios have traditionally not been established.
