Homework
1 hour per week. Journal prompts and other mindful activities will be written in the classroom each week. Students will be encouraged to complete these activities after watching the video for the corresponding week. Students will also be encouraged to practice what they learned throughout the days leading up to the next week. This will greatly improve their ability to learn the poses, understand the movements, and gain a healthy yoga practice routine.

Class Experience

Beginner Level
*This is a self-paced course that does not meet live. Recorded instruction is posted weekly in the classroom for learners to view on their own time.*

This is a 4 week (one lesson per week) journey, guiding your learner into the world of yoga. Your child will be taught how to use positive affirmations and breathwork to decrease stress and anxiety. They will also be taught a variety of yoga postures and a yoga flow to help improve overall strength and flexibility. This course is built to promote stress relief while increasing self-confidence, mindfulness, and body awareness. 

All learners will be encouraged to participate in completing the journal prompts and other activities left in the classroom each week. Bonus points for sharing photos of yourself in a pose!

**This is a self-paced course that does not meet live. Recorded instruction is posted weekly in the classroom for learners to view on their own time. *Each passing week will build on the previous week. There are No Live Meetings.

Syllabus

4 Lessons
over 4 Weeks
Lesson 1:
The Background
 During week one, you will watch the "Intro Video" to learn how and why we meditate, why breath is important, and be introduced to some basic yoga terminology.  You will next watch "Video 1" to learn how a yoga class will typically flow while following along with several beginner-friendly poses. 
Lesson 2:
The Basics
 While watching "Video 2", you will be introduced to another affirmation, a new breathing technique, and begin learning the Warrior poses while continuing to incorporate breathwork into the sun salutation learned during the first week.  Journal prompts and other gems of information and activities will be left in the classroom to complete after finishing this week's video. 
Lesson 3:
Building Your Toolbox
 Week 3 will start with "Video 3". You will follow along with this video to learn new poses. Another affirmation and breath technique will be included at the start of the video to prepare the mind and body for a peaceful practice.  Located in the classroom will be a journal prompt to work on as well as a short assignment to prepare for the final week. 
Lesson 4:
Putting It All Together
 Week 4 consists of watching "Video 4", a video with less prompting allowing you to complete a full yoga practice using all the tools in your toolbox.  After watching the video, you will find the last journal prompt, a fun yoga activity, and a visual for practicing Sun Salutation B in the classroom. 

Other Details

Parental Guidance
As the guardian of your enrolled student, you understand that yoga includes physical movement and, as is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated. By participating, you acknowledge that your child is fit to do so. If they experience any pain or discomfort, they agree to listen to their body and discontinue the activity. You assume full responsibility for any and all damages, which may occur through participation. Yoga is not a substitute for medical attention, examination, diagnosis, or treatment.
Supply List
-A yoga mat or non-slip socks
-Paper & pencil for journal prompts
-Water bottle.
