Description

• Yoga is especially helpful for children and youth with disabilities. It helps them attain their maximum potential, both physically and mentally. Yoga postures can be adapted to meet the needs of each child. Adaptive yoga involves modifications to conventional yoga postures to allow children with cerebral palsy due to a birth injury, for example, to perform the poses safely. In adaptive yoga, a variety of props – mats, pillows, chairs, walls, straps, and sandbags – offer additional stability and support to a child with disabilities.
