Stretch What Matters - Promoting Growth for Kids with Special Needs

Stretch What Matters, an organization which instructs yoga to children with special needs as a vehicle to teach social thinking as well as personal boundaries. A uniquely designed yoga mat has outlines and colors for hand and foot placement. Elizabeth, the founder, started this to help her daughter with special needs and her ultimate goal is to reach more people: “My biggest message is that children with special needs are exactly what they are supposed to be, they are perfect the way they are. Yoga comes in and if we trust that they are who they are, we can expand as people.”
