Welcome & Grounding

At the start of each Yoga and Mindfulness session, participants are guided through gentle welcome and grounding techniques to create a calm, safe, and inclusive space. These practices help individuals settle into the present moment, fostering a sense of connection, comfort, and readiness for the session ahead.
Gentle Movement

Sessions incorporate gentle, adaptive movements suitable for all abilities and designed to support both physical and emotional well-being. Each movement is guided with care, encouraging participants to listen to their bodies, move at their own pace, and build confidence through mindful physical activity.
Mindful Breathing

Mindful breathing is a fundamental element of each session, helping participants develop awareness of their breath as a tool for calming the mind and body. These simple, guided breathing techniques can reduce stress, improve focus, and support emotional regulation in everyday life.
Sensory Mindfulness

Sensory mindfulness invites participants to safely and gently explore their surroundings using all five senses, encouraging presence and grounding in the moment. This practice can ultimately enhance self-awareness, reduce anxiety, and foster a deeper connection to the body and environment.
Guided Relaxtion

As part of the guided relaxation topic, a short body scan helps participants gently bring awareness to different areas of the body, noticing sensations without judgment. This calming practice supports mental clarity, relaxation, and a stronger over-arching mind-body connection. This takes place in a safe environment.
Closing Reflection

Each session ends with a closing reflection, offering participants a moment to pause, share simple thoughts if they wish, and express gratitude. This gentle practice helps build connection, reinforces positive experiences, and encourages a sense of completion and calm in a group of likeminded individuals

Yoga is delivered in a private, safe and supportive environment

At Inclusive Disability Assist, our yoga sessions are thoughtfully designed to provide a supportive and welcoming experience for all participants. We offer yoga in small group settings to ensure each individual receives the attention they need while feeling comfortable and confident to engage at their own pace. These sessions are conducted in a closed-off, private environment, creating a safe and calm space free from distractions or outside interruptions. This setting fosters a sense of security and privacy, allowing participants to focus fully on their wellbeing and movement without feeling self-conscious. Our goal is to create an inclusive, judgment-free atmosphere where everyone feels respected, empowered, and encouraged throughout their yoga journey.

Yoga tailored to your specific needs

We recognize that every individual has unique physical abilities, and our yoga sessions are carefully tailored to meet the needs of each participant. We understand that no two bodies are the same, and we respect and honour those differences throughout the course. While the activity takes place in a group setting, the focus remains on each person’s individual journey. There is no pressure to perform or keep up with others—participants are encouraged to move in ways that feel right for them. Our experienced instructors adapt movements and techniques to suit varying levels of mobility and comfort, ensuring everyone feels supported and empowered. We believe that yoga should be an inclusive and positive experience for all, built on respect, understanding, and encouragement

Enjoy the benefits of mindfulness in a private environment

IDA’s Mindfulness activity is delivered in a private, closed-off environment specifically designed to support the emotional and psychological wellbeing of every participant. We understand that mindfulness is a deeply personal practice, and creating a quiet, enclosed space allows individuals to fully immerse themselves in the experience without fear of judgment, distraction, or external stressors. This private setting fosters a sense of calm, safety, and trust—essential elements for participants to feel truly comfortable as they explore their thoughts, emotions, and inner awareness. By eliminating outside interruptions and providing a controlled, supportive atmosphere, we ensure that each person can engage with the course at their own pace, knowing they are in a respectful and confidential environment where their comfort and security are our top priorities.
