Adaptive Yoga at Kids' RehabGYM

Instructor: Julie Peoples-Clark, RYT
Location: Colchester

Adaptive Yoga for Children is designed specifically to benefit children with down syndrome, cerebral palsy, attention deficit disorder, learning disabilities and other developmental delays. Children and parents will be introduced to a step-by-step integrated system of yoga postures designed to increase cognitive and motor skills. The yoga postures tone specific muscle and nerve groups, benefit organs and endocrine glands, and activate brain cells. An inward attention of the breath is encouraged as we move through the class, which focuses the mind and encourages deep relaxation.

Dates: Monday evenings from 4 to 5 PM starting January 25th
Cost: $45 per child with a parent and/or caregiver for a 6-week class
