Who We Are

Move Through Yoga is a community-driven initiative designed to offer accessible, and inclusive yoga for all abilities. Our adaptive yoga approach meets individuals with intellectual, developmental, and physical disabilities where they are—helping them build confidence, enhance mobility, and improve physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

Why Adaptive Yoga?

We believe everyone, regardless of ability, deserves the opportunity to reduce isolation, improve mobility, and enhance mind-body wellness. Whether you’re a child with physical disabilities or an adult with intellectual challenges, Move Through Yoga is for you.

Greater Self-Regulation

Adaptive yoga empowers individuals with I/DD to manage emotions, reduce stress, and navigate daily challenges with confidence and calm.

Joyful Socialization

Parents, educators, support staff, and peers practice alongside students with disabilities, fostering healthy habits and meaningful social connections.

Enhanced Proprioception

Adaptive yoga helps individuals with I/DD improve body awareness, coordination, and movement, fostering greater control.

“In 2012, my family moved from Texas to Florida, bringing with it a fresh start—and new challenges. My son, Michael, who has Autism, struggled with the transition. During a meeting for Michael’s IEP, I met Stefanie from Move Through Yoga. She suggested Michael try yoga. That suggestion changed everything.

Yoga became a form of Occupational Therapy for Michael, strengthening his body, improving his focus, and enhancing his social skills. It gave him the confidence to graduate and even helped him secure a job at a hospital. His passion for yoga led him to become the first person with Autism to achieve a 200-hour RYT certification. Now, he leads yoga workshops, raises money for autism programs, and inspires others daily.”
