During our 3 weeks together, your tween/teen will learn different mindfulness, meditation and pranayama (breathing techniques) that they can then practice at home. No prior knowledge of meditation is necessary. Just a willingness to learn tools to become more focused, balanced and relaxed. Here is a more detailed break-down: Class #1: We'll review what mindfulness means and simple tools to incorporate this into their everyday lives, such as specific breathing techniques, how and when to incorporate mindful minutes and simple meditation techniques that we will practice together. Our session will end with a guided meditation for relaxation. Class #2: During this class, we will practice specific pranayama (breathing) techniques designed to calm the nervous system. We will then discuss how those breathing practices felt and discuss ways to work with these at home and in school. Our session will end with a guided meditation for relaxation and positive self-esteem. Class #3: We will start class with pranayama and then move into a guided meditation. I will introduce the gratitude journal and the kids will then have this to work on going forward. Our session will end with a guided meditation on gratitude.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi everyone. I'm Robyn Parets, founder of Pretzel Kids yoga and Breathe Joy Yoga! I'm also a mom to 3 boys and a yoga/meditation teacher for almost 20 years. Pretzel Kids yoga is one of the fastest-growing youth yoga and mindfulness brands in America. I'm thrilled to bring this important practice to your kids as mindfulness has been proven to help tweens/teens sleep better and reduce anxiety and stress.
In addition to my training and background in yoga & meditation, I'm trained in Mindfuness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) from UMass (the program started by Jon Kabat-Zinn). The Pretzel Kids yoga & mindfulness curriculum was developed by yoga & school teachers and is now in place in schools, gyms, recreation centers, camps and more. Kids and teens simply love our programming and I can't wait to work with your children!
