This qualitative study provides valuable insight regarding CRC survivors' expectations and experiences following a 10-week yoga intervention. While expectations varied from skepticism to specific symptom improvement, the majority of participants had a positive, open attitude towards yoga. Consistent with participants' experiences, yoga may represent a promising intervention for CRC survivors if the groups' specific concerns are taken into account.
