Have any of you heard of Yoga for special needs children? My mother-in-law came across a website for a yoga instructor who offers Yoga classes that supposedly are therapeutic for children with ADD, ADHD, Autism, and learning disabilities. She also mentions something called "Yoga Motion Therapy" which combines yoga and speech therapy. I was just wondering if this is a viable treatment to supplement other therapies such as speech, OT, etc.

If any of you live in the Indianapolis area, these classes that I read about are offered in Greenwood.
