Trauma-adapted Yoga in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry.

"Trauma-adapted-yoga (TAY) classes The classes, which span eight weeks with a once-a-week frequency, each last approximately 45-50 minutes. These small group classes are structured in a semi-circle arrangement to create a sense of security and empowerment for the participants. The teaching approach is trauma-sensitive, characterized by its inviting nature, provision of choices when facing challenges (A-B choices), and direction toward tangible physical sensations to enhance interoceptive awareness. Each yoga session follows a structured sequence of activities designed to promote participants' well-being and physiological awareness.~Online TAY classes After eight weeks, adolescents in the yoga group can continue their practice online. Exclusive to previous in-person participants, they'll receive a link for recorded classes and they will have the possibility to contact their health care contact any time."
