Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of yoga classes for persons living with dementia (PLWD) and their care partners. A secondary aim of this study is to examine the impact of yoga on caregiver burden.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Participants will be recruited from the D-Care Study in dyads. Both the caregiver and person with dementia must agree to participate. Screening will be done either in clinics or by telephone in the participants' homes. The intervention will be conducted in community facilities and participants' homes. The sample size will consist of 10 caregiver/person with dementia dyads. This number was chosen to provide evidence of feasibility of conducting yoga classes with dyads.
