Yoga for Special Needs Training (2015)

October 10, 2019@10:40:AM

This program provides students with Special Needs an opportunity to participate in a new and challenging healthy activity. In yoga, the students learn tools such as deep breathing to help them relax. Yoga gives them time in their day to pull away from their highly stimulating world and to clear their minds.

The objectives of this program are:

Community—to create a safe environment with clear expectations, where students can have fun through movement, social interaction and independence.

Health—through breathing, posture development, body awareness and body/mind integration, students will gain understanding of health promoting practices and habits.

Peace—students will experience an enhanced sense of self esteem, happiness, well‐being and confidence.
