• Self-report urgency-predominant, stress-predominant, or mixed-type incontinence on the screening voiding diary
• Willing to refrain from initiating medical treatments that may affect their incontinence or voiding pattern during the study period
• Capable of understanding study procedures and giving informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

• Participation in a yoga class or other formal or organized yoga instruction in the past year
• Any prior yoga therapy directed specifically at improving urinary incontinence or pelvic floor dysfunction
• Current use of medical therapy or device (i.e. pessary) for incontinence or use within the previous month
• Currently pregnant, gave birth within the past 6 months, or planning pregnancy during the study period
• Current urinary tract infection or a history or 3 or more urinary tract infections in the preceding year
