Movement, on your terms
For learning that doesn't follow one timetable.
Support the people balancing study with everything else, with a practice they can choose on their own terms.
Work, study, and home
Fit a practice around a full life.
Morning shifts, evening classes, family time: no two schedules look alike. Practice whenever you have a moment, without another class to get to.
A fresh start
Start from wherever you are.
Beginner-friendly options and clear instruction let learners and educators explore movement at their own level, with music, pace, and length they choose.
Backed by published research
Make room for wellbeing alongside work and study.
Learning can be one part of a very full day. Research using Down Dog's apps has explored how at-home exercise can support wellbeing alongside life's demands.
Reducing burnout
In a randomized trial of 288 healthcare workers, 12 weeks with Down Dog's apps reduced depressive symptoms and burnout — less cynicism and less emotional exhaustion — while also reducing sick days.
Reducing depression
The COPE trial randomized community adults to at-home yoga and HIIT programs with our apps. Every active group saw significant reductions in depressive symptoms compared with waitlist controls.
Improved wellbeing
A follow-up analysis found the apps improved wellbeing — including flourishing and resilience — with the strongest gains for people who practiced both Yoga and HIIT.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Who can apply?
Students and educators at vocational schools, trade schools, and adult or career training institutions can apply. We review each institution; submitting an application does not guarantee eligibility.
Which email address should I use?
Use the email address issued by your school or institution. Personal email domains such as Gmail aren't eligible for the application. If your Down Dog account uses a different email, add it in the optional account field. That field can use a personal email address.
What if my school doesn't have a website, or I don't have a school email address?
We can only approve applications that include your institution's website and an email address issued by the institution. That's how we confirm the institution is real and that you study or teach there, so applications without them, or from personal email domains such as Gmail, can't be approved.
What if I already have a Down Dog account?
Include your existing account email so we can find it. We'll email the next steps. Existing access and any previous education trial affect what you're eligible for; applying does not automatically start a new trial.
Can I apply if my institution is already approved?
Yes. Use your institutional email address and we'll send the instructions for your account. You don't need to arrange a new partnership for an institution that's already eligible.
Do I need any yoga or fitness experience?
No. Choose beginner-friendly practices and adjust the length and level to suit you. Clear video and spoken instruction guide each practice.
