Yoga is now recognized for helping children and adults with ADHD, Autism, Aspergers, learning disabilities, Sensory Processing Disorder, visual impairments, and a multitude of other problems.   Even schools have recognized the value of yoga therapy and they are hiring yoga therapists to help their students!

So, why does it work? The physical movements of yoga help to create new neural pathways in our brains.  These new neural pathways help children dealing with challenges and even make learning much easier!  In addition, vestibular and proprioceptive stimulation help the with sensory processing problems.
