Twenty-nine early childhood students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) engaged in 5-weeks of TR led Kid Yoga Rocks (KYR; n = 10), Drumtastic ® (DR; n = 11), or Classroom/recess control group (CR; n = 8). Statistical analysis revealed significant positive changes pre-post in cognition (p < .001) and mood/fun (p =.003) within DR and KYR groups. Significant positive affect change resulted in DR and KYR vs. CR (p < .001); though no difference between DR and KYR. No significant change in socialization with others pre-post for all three groups. However, near significant between groups change for personal relationships for KYR and DR vs. CR which showed DR significantly better (p = .023). Thus, TR led evidence-based practice in schools as a related service can benefit children with ASD including problem solving, memory, relationship building, and expression of positive emotion.
