Yoga can be helpful for children with autism, ADHD and ADD by helping with sensory processing, self-regulation, cognition and co-ordination skills, gross and fine motor skills, concentration and relaxation.
Mission
At Namaste Yogis, our mission is to help children develop a better relationship with themselves so that they can have a better relationship with others. Through yoga and mindfulness, we guide children on how to treat themselves with love and kindness, so that they may treat others and the world, with love and kindness.
Vision
We believe we can make the world a better place by starting with ourselves – our thoughts, words and actions – “Loving thoughts, Loving Words, Be Love”.
Core Values
Love – each child deserves unconditional love from themselves and their family.
Respect – each child deserves to be respected for their authentic self.
Be heard and listened to – each child deserves to be heard and listened to, so that they may learn to listen to their heart.
We Believe
It starts with us, whether you’re an adult or a child.
Our family has a significant impact on how we see ourselves and the world.
By teaching children and parents how to love themselves, we have the opportunity to change the world.
We do this by teaching yoga to children and families. Yoga helps children and families manage their stress and anxiety, helping them become more grounded, centred, instilling a sense of calmness, cultivating resilience and self-confidence. They learn the importance of prioritising their physical, emotional and mental health. Through this process children learn to treat themselves and the world with love and kindness.
