Book-Yoga for the Special Child « Thread Started on Jul 27, 2008, 3:29pm »
Hi
I have recently purchased this great book from Amazon. "Yoga for the Special Child: A therapeutic approach for infants and children with Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and Learning disabilities" by Sonia Summer.
It is written by a yoga teacher whose daughter was born with Down syndrome. She began yoga with her daughter when she was only a few months old, with benefits to physical health, intelligence and well being. Later, the author started yoga classes for other kids with special needs.
The photos are amazing, the stories inspiring and it contains descriptions and pictures so that you can start work yourself.
