1:1 sessions for children and young people can be transformative.
My therapeutic sessions are tailored to the child - no fixing required! An opportunity for them to be as they are, no demands or expectations. A space to explore, and build trusting relationships.
"My son started yoga with Debs last year. I was aware of the Yoga for Additional Needs classes that Deborah had run but he wasn't comfortable in larger, busy groups of children and so she comes to our house.
To begin with he was a little anxious and unwilling to try some of the yoga poses and activities Deborah suggested.
He always wanted me to stay in the room and join in or do it first so he could watch. It took a little while, but she built his trust through her patient, encouraging and friendly presence and got him joining in. He then began focussing more and being less distracted.
His sessions are after school and so he can sometimes be tired and Deborah is very good at reading his emotions and knowing when not to push him and go with what he wants to do on the day. If he's distracted with toys or something else she will usually find a way of talking about that, turning it into a yoga pose or making another game out of it to incorporate his interests into the session.
Deborah always tells me what she's done with Oliver, how it went, what he enjoyed and was less keen on and when he's had enough he is very happy to tell her he's done and it's time for her to go home!
Deborah also gives advice on anything I ask about or that the OT has raised.
My son now loves the session and looks forward to it every week and has even taught some of his class some poses in their yoga in PE. I believe it has given him confidence, is building strength and gross motor skills and now he is very comfortable with Deborah we have also been able to attend some group sessions, which is helping his social skills too."
