FREE AUTISM & ADHD YOGA TASTER SESSIONS FOR ADULTS

Thurs 12th Nov 1-2pm
Fri 13th Nov 7-8pm
Om Yoga Works, Leeds LS28

I’m really excited to be offering these sessions for neurodivergent adults to try yoga. They’re pressure and judgement-free and held in a neurodivergent-friendly space at Om Yoga Works. Yoga offers an opportunity to feel calmer, be more connected to your body and take a break from masking. There’s no need to perform, interact or wear special clothing. Just come along as you are.
The sessions include:
A quiet, low-sensory environment
No music and comfortable lighting
Gentle movement and breathwork
Short relaxation to help settle a busy mind
Movement suitable for complete beginners and all levels, use a chair if you like
Choices about what you do and when and to stop anytime.
Optional hot drink and questions afterwards

I’m an 300-hour accredited yoga teacher with experience of working with neurodiverse adults and I was diagnosed autistic 14 years ago and I bring this experience to my teaching.

All neurodivergent identifying adults are welcome. Please get in touch if you want to know more.

Why Sally?

Sally brings both professional experience and personal understanding to her teaching. She was diagnosed as autistic herself 14 years ago and understands first-hand some of the challenges that neurodivergent people can experience, including masking, sensory overload and anxiety.

She is a 300-hour accredited yoga teacher with experience working with neurodiverse adults and is passionate about creating yoga spaces that feel safe, inclusive and accessible.

Her classes incorporate elements of yoga that can support both body and mind, including gentle movement, breathwork, relaxation and meditation.

Everyone is welcome

You don’t need to be flexible, fit or experienced in yoga. The session is suitable for all levels, including complete beginners.

There is no pressure to talk, interact or participate beyond what feels comfortable for you. You can simply come along, practise alongside the group and enjoy some time for yourself.

And if you’d like to stay afterwards, there will be an opportunity to have a cuppa, meet and connect with other group members, and ask Sally any questions about the practice or what future sessions might look like.

The session is completely FREE, but spaces are limited, so booking is essential.

Come along, take a breath, and discover how yoga might support you to feel a little calmer, more comfortable and more connected to yourself.
