Yoga and Mindfulness are incredible tools to help calm the mind and body. Children greatly benefit from this practice, as it supports their physical and emotional health, increasing strength, coordination and flexibility while also giving them the tools for emotional regulation, increasing focus, decreasing stress and anxiety, and boosting self esteem. Storytime Yoga uses the power of story and imagination to teach children yoga poses, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques to increase overall health and happiness while connecting with the important adults in their lives. We’ll bark in downward dog, jump like a frog, and smell the flowers, all while gaining the benefits listed above.

Yoga for the whole family! In this class, children and parents will enjoy a nurturing, supportive, non-competitive atmosphere as they stretch and energize their bodies and minds, learn to express themselves creatively and practice working cooperatively in groups through physical poses, partner poses, yoga games, and breathing/relaxation techniques. They’ll be introduced to activities they may have not tried before, learn mindfulness, self-calming techniques, relaxation, and develop special friendships all while having loads of fun! This is a wonderful opportunity to unplug and reconnect with your family.

Teens today have an ever-increasing stress level, between school, extracurricular activities, social pressures, and increased technology and social media usage.

Each class will include a variety of yoga poses, including arm balances, inversions, and partner poses (if more than one person), breathing and mindfulness exercises, and an opportunity for journaling and reflection.
