Yoga for Neurodivergent Adults & Family Members (Midtown @ The Yoga Center)

Facilitate Joy! and Luminary Yoga & Wellness are pleased to offer this gentle flow yoga practice to support the neurodivergent adults & family members of neurodivergent individuals in our community. This class also provides a great opportunity to build your own community and connect with, and be supported by, individuals who share similar life experiences.

The goal of these classes is to assist individuals with downregulating their nervous system, connecting with their bodies and building strength and mobility through a combination of breathing exercises, meditation and a physical practice that combines a gentle flow with yin/restorative poses. From class to class, we often revisit some of our breathing exercises and physical poses to help build comfort, familiarity and confidence (while also trying out some new fun stuff from time to time!). Hands on adjustments are available for those who are comfortable with that, but generally the teacher remains on the mat and guides the practice through demonstrations, practicing alongside the students and verbal cues.

The studio spaces we have chosen offer a sensory-friendly space; lighting and outside sounds are kept to a minimum (music is not used during these classes) and props are used to support and build awareness of our bodies.

Classes are limited to 6 individuals. If the In-studio class if full or you would like to join via Zoom, please select the "Online via Zoom" offering for the date of your choosing. There is no limit to the number of attendee's via Zoom.

NO PREVIOUS YOGA EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY. As with all of our classes, we truly believe yoga is for every-BODY and we welcome all people because of your diverse level of yoga experience, body type, age, disability, gender, gender identity, race, religion or belief or sexual orientation. While we may not get it perfect and are always learning, our hope is to provide a space that is safe for everyone to experience yoga.
