Yoga has many benefits, including providing a sense of well-being through connection to one’s body, mind, and emotions. When practised in a nurturing non-competitive environment, students learn to express their true selves and become more in tune with themselves, the people around them, and the Earth.
Yoga benefits all children, but some need that little extra attention. Children who have ADD, ADHD, hypersensitivity, or autism are all helped by regular Yoga practice.
