1:1 Therapeutic Approach to Support Anxiety
Kids Yoga Therapy combines the calming benefits of traditional yoga with therapeutic techniques, making it a unique and effective tool for supporting children’s overall well-being.
​
It is specifically tailored to address a variety of challenges that children may face, including anxiety, stress, depression , living with autism, ADHD, sensory processing issues, trauma and grief, chronic pain, asthma, digestive issues, insomnia and hypermobility.
​
Unlike general kids' yoga, which focuses primarily on physical postures and movement, Kids Yoga Therapy uses therapeutic strategies to support children in a deeper, more integrated way. It helps children connect their body, mind, and emotions while providing a safe space to express themselves and learn self-regulation.
