Participants were recruited from the San Francisco Bay Area from 2019 to 2022. The trial included twice-weekly small group instruction delivered via telehealth using the videoconference platform Zoom. Questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were used to assess satisfaction and explore experiences of learning yoga in an online format. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a hybrid deductive\/inductive qualitative thematic analysis approach.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Questionnaire results showed 96% of respondents (n = 51) rated their overall experience with online yoga as \u201cgood to excellent.\u2019\u2019 Interview participants (n = 24) identified key challenges including navigating technology, configuring home environments, limited social connection, and not being in the physical presence of the yoga teacher. However, these challenges were offset by facilitators such as convenience, privacy, and perceived mind-body benefits, including improved incontinence symptoms. Effective teaching strategies contributing to a positive experience included detailed verbal instructions, visual demonstrations, solicitation of questions, and individualized feedback.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Synchronous, videoconference-based yoga instruction was effective at engaging midlife and older women in managing urinary incontinence. The online format provided convenience and privacy, making therapeutic yoga more accessible. Tailored teaching strategies and technical support significantly enhanced learning and satisfaction.
