Description
Class Experience
Students will learn different ways to take care of themselves to meet their self-image in terms of Health, Wellness and Fitness. Through a variety of yoga exercises, each student sees what works for them and how to modify exercises to fit their comfort level and needs. This improves self-confidence and self-image because they learn to modify movements according to their own capabilities rather than looking like someone else. A combination of Yoga stretching and yoga breathing, fitness exercises that target abdominals, arms, back, legs, to strengthen and create more flexibility without use of weights; aerobic movements such as yoga postures that combine flowing from one posture to another, as well as floor exercises and calisthenics to tone body. Resting afterwards is key to balancing out movement with relaxation. Using guided visualization exercises to calm the body and mind is taught at the end of the class. Health tips in terms of healthy choices in food will also be introduced. Using the basics of Ayurveda which is the Nutrition of Yoga, students will learn how their unique body constitution needs certain foods and spices to stay optimally healthy and balanced. Cooking demonstrations using simple ingredients will be announced and is not part of every class. During these formidable years, having a solid foundation in wellness for body and mind to stay on track and keep healthy at every level is key for developing a long term 'feel good' and positive attitude to self-care and self-confidence.

Your child's safety and privacy is a priority. This class involves physical fitness exercises and while no equipment is needed, the workout space needs to be safe. Clear any furniture away from the area where the student will be participating in this class. The space should be well lit, properly ventilated and free from obstructions. A yoga mat is helpful but if the student has a carpeted area, that will be provide enough safety. Water bottles are also helpful. As with any physical activity, injuries could occur so knowing your child's abilities and strengths as well as weaknesses in determining if this class is the right fit for them will create a safe and fun class. While it isn't necessary that a parent be present during the class, it is recommended that a parent or caretaker properly supervise to make sure students are prepared.
