What is Yoga Therapy?

Yoga Therapy brings the same physical and emotional benefits as a traditional yoga session, but can be tailored to benefit children and families experiencing specific issues.
Who Can Benefit From Yoga Therapy?
Practicing yoga and breathing techniques develops physical and emotional stamina, making children stronger, more confident and better able to cope with problems
Communication and family harmony are strengthened through practicing yoga together. Any family can benefit from yoga, but families undergoing other kinds of therapy might find it especially useful.
Yoga, relaxation and breathing techniques can improve children’s sleeping and eating patterns, restoring balance to their daily lives
Our qualified yoga practitioner will tailor yoga sessions to meet your family’s needs, and also offers the following classes, either in school or at our Putney clinic:
Family Yoga Therapy
A wonderful way for children and their parents/ carers to strengthen their relationship and understanding of each other. It’s not about achieving the perfect pose but about being and learning together.
Relaxation and Breathing Techniques for Stress and Anxiety
The pressures of modern life can expose children to a lot of stress and anxiety, especially around exam time. Learning relaxation techniques early on can equip children to manage stress in childhood, and later on as adults. Relaxation, play and exercise are key to ensuring children grow up feeling relaxed, happy and positive about themselves and world around them.
Relaxation and Breathing Techniques for Stammering
For children who stammer, breathing exercises can help them to use their voices, control the breath, and support the respiratory system. Learning breathing and relaxation techniques can help to alleviate stress and anxiety, which in turn has a positive impact on stammering.
