Class Experience

This isn’t your grandma’s sun salutation! Students will build their yoga knowledge and body awareness through yoga games. Starting with a slow flow, we’ll move into balancing games, flow collaboration using a series of randomly selected poses, and finish up with another flow. Yoga Games invites students to think about how yoga poses connect to one another, find balance, and moments of stillness. Class begins and ends with a traditional yoga flow. Each week we'll play games and build flows that allow us to focus on strengthening different areas of the body. 

This is not a traditional yoga class. No yoga experience is required.

Through highly interactive student-driven programming we are able to help our students develop leadership and teamwork skills that travel beyond the classroom. All of our classes are gamified and include a touch of silliness. We believe that learning is more fun when we are comfortable enough to laugh and create. We look forward to laughing and learning with you.

Every child is capable of learning and as educators, it is our mission to help each child find their own passion for knowledge. 

Our Values:
All of our teachers have a passion for both teaching and learning! We create a safe gender neutral space that celebrates diversity. Our students are welcome to share how they feel in class and they are encouraged to socialize with their peers. Children are very honest and even when they don't mean to, they will let you know exactly how they feel.
