We recommend starting with our Foundation: Introduction to Yoga for Youth as some of the content is sequential.

Your leaders may include Eve Margol, M.Ed., Cecilia Lo Cicero, Rick Yoder, and others who have over 20 years of personal and professional degrees, experiences, and training in this area.

Yoga for Youth with Differing Needs and Unexpected Life Changes, covers the foundations of working with youth who experience differences such as autism, sensory processing challenges, ADHD, emotional disturbance, trauma, and other cognitive, emotional, and physical challenges.

New to this training, Yoga for Youth with Differing Needs and Unexpected Life Changes, we are including information and practices to support parents and teachers who may be encountering new challenges because of COVID-19 (increased anxiety, depression, difficulties with focus and concentration, and reduction in social interaction, ruminating with fear) and in preparation for what may be a hybrid (online and in-person) next school year. This training will also demonstrate and discuss practices for teaching in an on-line environment.
