I highly recommend that your student continues practicing yoga, breathing and meditation. Finding the right teacher sometimes is key, as different teachers have different approaches and personalities. Find one that suits your child and consider signing up for regular classes.Class Experience
In this class, we will practice yoga poses in a way that will give learners a full body workout, with emphasis on balancing poses. Improving a student's balance can have many benefits: injury prevention, performance enhancement, confidence improvement, they even say it makes you smarter... But most importantly, it can be a fun and engaging workout for young learners. We fall out of a pose and we get back in! :) Breakdown of the 45-minute class: ~ 5 minutes welcome ~ 5 minutes warm-up and gentle stretching ~ 5 min Sun-Salutation warm up ~ 15 min balancing postures ~ 10 min gentle stretching and cool down ~ 5 min breathing exercise and/or gratitude moment This class can be a great compliment to other activities/sports but can also constitute an amazing exercise on its own. Students will be offered different variations for poses, so that everybody can find what suits their body and experience level best. In other words, no experience is required and all body shapes are very welcome. Because we all can use a little bit of yoga! Please join us!
Learning Goals
The goal of this class is to move and bring awareness to our body and mind. We all tend to spend a lot of time sedentary these days. But our body needs moment. I suggest bringing more exercise and happiness (endorphins) into our day.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Please note: In any physical activity, risk of serious physical injury is possible. Yoga is not a substitute for medical diagnosis and treatment. Yoga practice might not be recommended for individuals with certain preexisting health issues. Please consult your doctor before practicing. If your child has any preexisting health conditions, recent surgeries or unresolved pains, that I should we aware of, please bring it to my attention before class. By signing up for this class, you confirm that you are aware of the risk associated with yoga practice and that your child has no medical conditions which would prevent them from participating in yoga classes.
Students are always encouraged to listen to their body. Pain and strong discomfort are signs that the student should slowly come out of the pose and maybe choose a different variation of the posture. Students are encouraged to talk to the teacher before or after class to discuss any issues or questions they might have.
Supply List
Students are encouraged to have a yoga mat or a rag. Though yoga can be practiced on bare floor as well, it is just more comfortable to have a mat. Students can choose some additional props (ex: blocks, strap, cushion, blanket), however they are not required. Students are encouraged to practice barefoot as that allows for better grip and stability. Comfortable clothing to allow for free movement and drinking water would be a great plus. :)

Certified Yoga Teacher:
I have been practicing asana for over 10 years. Realizing the effect that my practice had on me both mentally and physically, I was pulled to learn more about yoga. Having completed the 200hr YYT with We Are One Teacher Training in Reno, I started teaching both online and in person in individual settings and small groups. It is very empowering and motivational to see the students realize the impact that yoga can have on them. Because we all can use a little bit of yoga...
There are no judgments in my classes, and no previous experience is required. Starting practicing yoga is never too early and it is never too late. Also, there is no better day then today!

I love art and believe it is one of the most beautiful forms of expressing ourselves. In my free time I often make different macramé pieces and paint. Looking forward to sharing some of my skills with the Outschool students!
