Owner/operator of Scottsdale Recovery Centers as well as co-founder of Dark Star Yoga, Chris Cohn, describes the approach as, "A vinyasa flow sequence utilizing certain positions and poses to help detoxify and heal the body; poses that were invented long ago with the objective of healing the body from the affects of addiction."  This program, however, is provided in a group-type setting that also introduces the components present in 12-Step recovery meetings in a manner that helps shed further light on the relationship between yoga and such recovery principles.
