In this African safari themed yoga class, students will build strength, flexibility, and calmness by moving through different African safari themed yoga poses. Students will learn different breathing types to help them calm their bodies and their minds and to focus. Students will also learn about some animals they may see on an African safari. In this class, we will focus on what each group of animals is called; for example, a group of elephants is called a herd or a parade. I will guide the students through the yoga class offering different variations for different levels. I will also offer moments for students to reflect, respond, and interact. Students do not need any experience with yoga as this is a beginners class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi!
My name is Catherine. I am married; I have a dog, and I am a mom to a two year old boy, and a 4 month old boy. I am a first grade teacher in a job sharing position. I have been teaching for 8 years, and I have taught students in grades kindergarten through 6th grade. I have my Bachelor's Degree, my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, and my Master's Degree in Education.
I love teaching online and am able to create a safe and interesting atmosphere for learning in my virtual classroom! I teach all types of classes. I really enjoy teaching phonics and reading, social and emotional learning, art and yoga!
For the past two years at my school, we have been focusing on student social and emotional learning. I love helping kids understand their feelings and manage their emotions.
FUN FACT: I taught the yoga elective at my elementary school. I used to dislike yoga and stretching because I was extremely inflexible. I failed my physical fitness test in 5th grade because I couldn't touch my toes. It wasn't until college when I decided to give yoga another chance. I found that I became more flexible by moving from pose to pose rather than just holding one pose. Through yoga, I found strength, increased flexibility, focus, and calmness. And I am happy to report that I can now touch my toes! :) I hope I can help your child gain confidence in their yoga practice by meeting them at all levels and having fun!Reviews
