About event
Yoga for ADHD - Focus & Flow
This specially developed practice is aimed at people with ADHD and other neurodivergent manifestations who often find classic, slow yoga styles inappropriate or frustrating feel. Instead, you'll experience a dynamic, interactive Vinyasa flow class that stimulates your brain, activates the body and brings you into a state of calm and focus.
Why yoga works for ADHD - scientifically proven:
- Dynamic breathing techniques such as Kapalabhati (“Breath of Fire”) have been proven to improve attention and reduce acute anxiety.
- Nadi Shodhana (Alternative breathing)regulates the autonomic nervous system and increases blood flow in the prefrontal cortex - important for focus and decision-making ability.
- Yoga trains vagus nerve activity, which reduces stress reactions and increases the ability to flexibly switch between activation and relaxation change - a key for ADHD.
- Attention as a muscle: Executive function is strengthened through movement sequences with clear micro-goals (“hold 8 breaths, change to the next pose”) - like brain training in motion.
The lesson combined:
- Moderate to faster Vinyasa flow, varied sequences
- Breathing exercises alternating: activating + calming (Focus Training)
- Interaction with the teacherto maintain presence and engagement
- Music with a rhythmic structure(70-100 bpm, e.g. tabla, sitar, flute) to support flow & Concentration
Philosophy:
The goal is not to suppress the “chaotic mind” but to give it a clear structure: Activate → Focus → Regulate. This is how you learn to direct your attention in a targeted manner instead of against yours Fight neurodivergence. In the end, you'll feel balanced, focused and in tune with your body - ready to use your energy consciously.
For whom:
- People with ADHD or difficulty concentrating
- Neurodivergent people who have difficulty with Sit still
- Anyone who wants to train their attention like a muscle
Style: Moderate to high-tempo Vinyasa flow, combined with targeted breathwork & rhythmic Music.
