Our mission is to make yoga, art, and meditation accessible to Hong Kong’s most vulnerable communities.

YAMA Foundation services people with disabilities & special needs,
people living in poverty and people with poor mental health.

We offer accessible wellbeing programmes and events directly to beneficiaries as well as in collaboration with a network of community NGO partners, schools, and other service organisations. We advocate for the inclusion of people with special needs, promote accessibility awareness and train professionals and caregivers for adaptive wellbeing approaches.

THE YAMA CENTRE IS OFFICIALLY OPEN!

YAMA is committed to improving physical and mental wellbeing for everyone, regardless of income or ability. With 23% of Hong Kong's population living in poverty and 61% facing mental health challenges, accessibility is at the heart of our mission.

Our newly opened YAMA Centre is a community-focused space designed to be fully inclusive, featuring a ramped entrance, adjustable lighting, disabled facilities, spacious corridors, lifts, and excellent transport links. At YAMA, we strive to create a safe, empowering, and welcoming environment for all.
