Jordyn Bruner (pictured above), a 23-year-old woman with Down syndrome is in her 7th year of practicing Modified Yoga with Coco! Her mother, Tracey Bruner, has this to say: "Since Jordyn has started taking yoga, her muscles are more toned than ever. She has learned to concentrate on the areas of her body that have caused her discomfort, giving new strength and energy to those areas."
Jordyn herself says: "I love YOGA because it's good for you and your body as well!"
This is a testimonial written by Verna Whelan, whose sister Tina (pictured above) began practicing Yoga with Coco in 2012.
"Tina looks forward to attending yoga and uses her yoga knowledge on a daily basis. Her physical strength has increased which in turn has aided in her concentration, her balance and her coordination. Her fitness level benefits her increase in energy, her maintenance of sugar levels for her diabetes and her alertness. She has increased her confidence and she is able to assert herself and have people around her listen! The physical, emotional and mental strength she has gained from yoga increases regularly and adds to her independence and self-confidence."
