  The SWAN questionnaire was analyzed using the Wilcoxon Paired Test, where significant improvement was observed after the intervention in the Yoga group only for the Defiant Defiant Disorder variable according to the parents' responses (Yoga: p – value = 0.001; Control: p-value = 0.07). The Mann-Witney test for independent samples identified that there was no significant difference between the Yoga and Control groups in any of the variables evaluated before and after the intervention. In turn, the analysis of the speech revealed that parents and children realized that the practice of Yoga at school brought more calm, concentration and improvements in the quality of interpersonal relationships

Já o teste de Mann-Witney para Amostras Independentes identificou que não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos Yoga e Controle em nenhuma das variáveis avaliadas antes e após a intervenção. Por sua vez, a análise do discurso revelou que pais e crianças perceberam que a prática do Yoga na escola trouxe mais calma, concentração e melhorias na qualidade das relações interpessoais
