Yoga for HOH
April 2004
YES HERE IT COME
YOGA FOR PEOPLE WITH HEARING DISABILITIES
At this stage it is more for people who are using sign language. I wish to extend it also to support those who do not sign. We all bless and celebrate a good and a serious start from a great institute. We will do our best to find funding to extend such activities and developments.To fund interpreter and technology solutions.
When I started IMCommunity there was no Yoga class for people with hearing disabilities and I looked for one for years in Boston, Israel and NYC.
Now Sharon is starting the class at NYC - April 2007
Sarit is learning the topic in Israel
And will provide private classes for HOH beginning - May 2007 in NYC and NJ
Please forward the information to anyone who may be interested in developing the topic or take a class.

באופן אישי לא יצא לי לעבוד עם כיבדי שמיעה ואני לא מכירה אנשים שעובדים איתם אך לדעתי אין ולא צריכה להיות בעיה לעשות זאת. למשל אצלינו השיעור מתחיל המדיטציה, נשימות ואימון פיסי. מדוע שתהיה בעיה לעשות זאת עם כיבדי שמיעה? כאשר אנו מודעים לבעיה ניתן לבנות את השיעור בהתאם לצרכים. לא רק שבעיני זה לא בעייה אלה זה גם מאתגר. שיעור מסוג זה צריך להתבסס על הדגמות, תשומת לב עמוקה מצידו של המורה, שכמובן עליו להיות מודע למורכבות של האוכלוסיה הספציפית ולהשתמש ביוגה בכדי לעזור להם. השפה לא חייבת להיות מילולית ולאו דוקא הקול של המורה הוא זה שיוצר את האוירה. הרעיון נשמע לי מצויין ואולי כדאי להכשיר מורים ליוגה לדבר כזה. עוד לא נכנסתי לאתר שלך אבל אעשה זאת בקרוב. אשמח מאד לתרום לו אם אוכל
שריתSarit from a Yoga teachers training program in Israel is happy to learn about the topic. She is sure classes can be modified to address HOH needs. Our conversation just started.
