Our founder, Angela Taylor has been practicing yoga for decades, and received certification January 2018 to provide this support affordably to our community. We support children, families and caregivers who have sensitivities or exceptional needs to share an inclusive class to bring wellness to their mind, body and spirit.
Exceptional Family Yoga
We offer this program in partnership with community centres, family centres, churches, and any place families will be. All levels of skill, activity and need are welcome and encouraged to participate in any way they feel comfortable. Some needs we have supported are: ADHD/ADD, Autism, Trauma-based neurological differences, Anxiety and mood differences, FASD and others.
My children and I had so much fun. I was not so sure about doing yoga with them, but it was a mix of games, interacting, connecting and yoga, and was just the perfect thing.
Here is an example of some of the programming we’ve offered:
Exceptional Caregiver Yoga
We offer this program in partnership with many community groups. All levels of skill, activity and need are welcome and encouraged to participate in any way they feel comfortable. Some caregiver needs we have supported are: parents of infants with health issues, such as colic, caregivers of children of ADHD/ADD, Autism, Trauma-based neurological differences, Anxiety and mood differences, FASD and others.
This was exactly what I was looking for and what I needed. So often we feel alone as parents raising these amazing kids, and it was so comforting to be with others experiencing the same thing as I was. I can’t wait to come again!
Here is an example of some of the programming we’ve offered:
All props and program needs are included in each partnership, including mats, blocks, blankets and toys.
We apply for grants to allow this program to be at low or no fee to children, families and caregivers. Contact us if you are interested in working with us.
