About Our Yoga Classes

—Each yoga class is led by a teacher who has completed at minimum both a 200-hour yoga teacher training and an additional Yoga for Autism (Part A) teacher training led by founder Sharon Manner.

—Our yoga classes offer a combination of breathing exercises, chanting, yoga postures, relaxation techniques (yoga nidra or yoga sleep) and other self-regulation tools that bring clients a sense of peace and dignity within themselves.

—Yoga, as it’s taught through our programs is not a religious practice. The postures and breathing exercises, the relaxation techniques and self-regulation tools are culled from yoga’s 5,000 year-old traditions and its vast well of resources.
