Many of my students struggle with multiple physical, psychological and learning disabilities. Yoga is an incredible way to teach the students to regulate their bodies and emotions. Being able to live in a regulated state is very difficult for many of high school students and it is even more challenging for students who have developmental delays and struggle to process what is going on in their lives.
My hope is by teaching the students yoga postures and breathing techniques they will be able to utilize their skills in real life situations. They will gain autonomy of their emotions and body.
