Autism-friendly GENTLE YOGA CLASS
April 2 @ 9:30 AM – 10:30 AM AEDT

As someone who loves and supports several people in my life who have amazing Autistic brains, I’m in a position to acknowledge and foster their creativity, passion, and often quirky humour.
Yet, I also witness their struggles in neurotypical society and environments that force them to mask in an effort to cope, and to minimise themselves so they might fit in.
PLEASE JOIN ME FOR AN AUTISM-FRIENDLY GENTLE YOGA CLASS!
We will practice in a low-stimulation environment with
~Â repetitive movements/poses
~Â lowered gaze, and
~Â easy-paced counted breathwork
All are welcome, especially if you are someone who lives with Autism and have been curious, but hesitant, to try a yoga class.
And, if you’re neurotypical, this experience may help you better understand the social and environmental challenges many Autistic people are faced with, and do their best to cope with, on a daily basis.
All mats and props are provided.
Simply bring yourself (and a support person if you wish) in comfortable clothing and a willingness to try.
