What is Talk Yoga™?

Talk Yoga™ is an innovative approach to
speech and language therapy that incorporates the
​movement and practices of yoga.

Picture
Our Mission
Talk Yoga™ was founded with the heart-felt belief that speech and language learning should be addressed in a ​kinesthetic, multidisciplinary, holistic context that is playful and fun. 

​Our Intention
Our intention is to combine evidence-based speech and language principles with the science of the benefits of the ancient practice of yoga poses, breathing, and mindfulness strategies and help children learn to express themselves in an inclusive, client-centered environment. They are free to explore, to express, play, learn™!
