I learned a lot from this program and I am grateful that I got certified through Asanas for Autism and Special Needs. This would be of great value to teachers and professionals, too.

I completed Level 1, 2, and 3 of Shawnee's online trainings. I cannot say enough good things about Shawnee and her courses. I was already a certified yoga teacher. But, as a parent of a disabled child with autism, I initially set out to learn more about tailoring yoga to meet my child's needs and the needs of other children and teens we knew who were also neurodivergent and/or struggling with their mental health. I was so inspired and impacted by Shawnee's work that it quickly led to completion of Level 2, then Level 3. I've taken many online offerings from other sources and for yoga and non-yoga related content. But Shawnee has the most comprehensive and user-friendly module and live class format that I've seen, and excellent resources that I will use regularly going forward. Moreover, Shawnee has lived experience that makes her teachings both relatable and knowledgeable.
