Flo and Kirsty are running the Bath Half Marathon to help raise money for Yoga 4 Autism, an organisation we care a great deal about as Flo sees the benefits first hand teaching this innovative, ground breaking practice.

Yoga 4 Autism helps people with special needs using natural methods such as yoga, mindfulness, meditation, exercise, nutrition, nature & healthy living. We address the root causes rather than covering up the symptoms as has often been the case in the past with western medicine and other such techniques. Many people are now becoming aware of the damaging side effects and inefficiency of these conventional methods and are very inspired with our results. Our techniques are 100% natural and are not only good for those with special needs but EVERYONE who wishes to live a happy, healthy life.

We want to help as many people as possible live to their FULL potential, without limitations.

David Ellams, creator of Y4A can personally vouch for this since he is on the spectrum and after a lifetime of trying everything with nothing really working, he finally discovered yoga, mindfulness and meditation, which helped turn his life around in the most amazing way. He felt he had a really hard life due to not receiving the help he really needed. He now wishes to help others so they do not have to suffer as he once did.

We really need your help to raise money for help with venue hire for classes, essential equipment and aids for instructors and students, staff, research and to give us a grounding to become self sufficient. Many families with a special needs family member struggle financially as it can be extremely hard work. Often we receive enquires from families that can really see the benefit of this practice but are unable to afford it. We want to make this available for EVERYONE.

Many thanks for your time and support. We really appreciate it!

Y4A was established in January 2013 by Rupert Smith MSc and David Ellams BSc(Hons).
