Benefits of Yoga Therapy for Special Needs 瑜伽對有特殊需要人士的益處
YAMA Foundation conducted a year-long study on the effects of yoga therapy for children with disabilities and special needs who received little to no therapeutic support. This information session shares details about the YAMA's flagship Yoga Therapy Subsidy Scheme, and shares the results of our research findings. Interested families can learn more about how to apply for YAMA's forthcoming intake and meet the yoga therapists at a short "Meet & Greet" session at the end.
