Testimonials
“Yoga with Debs was miraculous on Saturday for my children. One was very dysregulated beforehand and the yoga gave him the sensory input he needed and also really helped him emotionally – it was the calmest I’d seen him all week. My other child spent the whole day telling everyone how she’d been doing yoga to help her clear her mind! Debs is amazing with the children and was even able to offer some tips to help with some physical issues. Thank you Debs and Snaps!”
“My daughter has been having bi weekly sessions with Debs for over two years, my daughter has complex needs, wheelchair user, and a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy. A strong and comfortable relationship and bond has been established, my daughter benefits physically, emotionally and mentally from these sessions and I could not recommend Debs enough she is truly amazing and always ready to adapt sessions to my child’s needs.”
