MOVEMENT
Kundalini yoga improves brain coordination, stamina, develops gross and fine motor skills, enhances cognition, and facilitates language use.
LANGUAGE
Paired with language therapy techniques, yoga facilitates vocabulary and expressive language development and provides a context for conceptual development.
ARTICULATION
Yoga poses were carefully designed by speech-language pathologists to stimulate specific speech sounds.
ATTENTION, FOCUS, REGULATION
Mindfulness techniques, including breath work, guided relaxation, and meditation, positively influence executive functioning and self-reflection.
SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SKILLS
Use of emotional vocabulary, peer interaction, and positive self-talk foster acceptance, confidence, and communication.
INDIVIDUALIZED
A screening meeting will help your therapist learn about your child's individual strengths and needs. Classes and carryover work will be tailored to facilitate the greatest benefit for your child.
