Case Study: Zara

“I can’t praise these yoga sessions highly enough – Debs and Emily the teachers are great, they are so gentle, patient and accommodating, they take the time to really tune in to the children and constantly adapt the session to suit their needs.  We felt instantly welcome when we first arrived.  Zara so obviously enjoys it, as her parents so do we!  It’s a great time to bond with Zara, she really responds to the movement and closeness and we can tell how relaxed she is by the end of the session.

It’s really great that Little Hiccups can provide sessions like this, because normal children’s activities are often not suitable – for example children’s yoga will often be divided into ‘crawlers’, ‘toddlers’ etc and Zara doesn’t fit into any of those categories.  It’s difficult to find group activities that are suitable for Zara so she misses out on the socializing that her brother and sister did at the same age.”
