Testimonials

"I feel more prepared now than before, even though I've been teaching for a year and a half. The practice teaching and follow-up discussions really helped me to feel more comfortable with the visuals. I feel more confident using visuals now."

-Catherine Cook, Special Educator

"It was expertly put together: Expressing respectfully what autism is, the uniqueness that we all have as people, and the power of non- verbal communication. And the yoga itself was great!"
