At age thirteen, Matthew Sanford’s world turned upside-down when a devastating car accident killed his father and sister and left him paralyzed from the chest down. Advice from his doctors to “forget his lower body,” however, was what really crippled him. It also began his amazing and inspiring journey of waking his mind and body through yoga.
Today, Matthew teaches at national yoga conferences, studios and institutions around the country. He teaches traditional students and is a pre-eminent pioneer in adapting yoga for people with disabilities. Matthew will be sharing his experiences and conducting a yoga class for disabled and non-disabled participants at DMC Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan (RIM) on Wednesday, Sept. 28 at
in RIM's auditorium (261 Mack, Detroit , MI 48201
Matthew’s yoga class is FREE and open to the public to attend, however, space is limited so you must register in advance by calling Krystal Rodgers at 313-745-1003.
