2.4.1. Intervention Groups
The intervention period was 8 weeks. The YogaDance intervention group followed three weekly YogaDance classes (in total. 24 classes), whereas the mindful eating group attended a workshop every second week (in total four workshops). The combined mindful eating and YogaDance intervention group followed both three weekly YogaDance classes and a mindful eating workshop every second week. The control group did not participate in the YogaDance classes nor the mindful eating workshops. During the intervention period, volunteers were told to avoid other strenuous physical activities.To increase compliance and willingness to participate in the study, control group participants were offered to join a one-month course with mindful eating workshops and YogaDance classes taking place after trial termination. Likewise, participants in the mindful eating and YogaDance groups were also offered the possibility of participating in the one-month course.
