A typical yoga class for infants is usually 30 minutes long. Group or one-to-one classes for children and youth last for 45 minutes. The components in a typical yoga session for children and youth with disabilities are discussed in the following sections.
To see another sample yoga session for an individual with a disability, view the NCHPAD video clip series: Adapted Yoga for Children and Youth with Cerebral Palsy.
Start the class by having the student sit cross-legged (independently or with assistance) on the floor.
