About us

Jeanette Runnings has been a Pediatric Occupational therapist for over 20 years, working to help special children meet their full potential.  Her experience includes working with children with Autism, Down syndrome, Cerebral palsy, Learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD along with other developmental challenges.  She had taken yoga classes for several years before incorporating yoga into her therapy practice.  She found the kids enjoyed doing yoga and she saw progress especially with balance, flexibility, anger control and self calming and regulation.  She received certification to teach children's yoga through Karma Kids Yoga in NYC and The Radiant Child Yoga Programs 1-2.  The latter programs are accredited through the Yoga Alliance.  While attending the Karma Kids teacher certification program in June 2005, she was inspired to create and develop the YOGA-YINGO game series.  The goal is to introduce children and families to the benefits of yoga in a fun and educational game format. The games were developed to be used at homes, daycares and for family and children's yoga classes.  She hopes you will find them fun and useful. Originally working in Idaho, she is now practicing and working in Arizona.  She can be reached by mail at: 1220 N. Farrell St. Gilbert, AZ 85233, or phone at:

866-282-2258 or 480-633-7199.
