30 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
Students identifying as female will be taught how to recognize when they cannot concentrate and a few techniques to help calm their minds so that they can return to their tasks. This will be through gentle yoga poses, breathwork and self-talk. In our class community, I will demonstrate and model the practices, offering gentle corrections and redirections when needed. I have used these techniques to help my own busy mind and with my students in yoga and in the classroom. Students do not need any experience but should realize that a busy mind sometimes keeps them from being successful in school and in life.
Learning Goals
Neurodivergent learners (with ADHD, Autism and everything in between) will learn to use yoga strategies to quiet their minds and to be more comfortable with themselves.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
I will refer to the fact that learners with ADHD, Autism and other neurodivergent learning styles (diagnosed or not) may have a tendency to feel that their minds are very full and active - and that they can learn to live with and love this part of themselves.
Supply List
A one-page resource sheet will be provided at the end of class. Girls should bring either 1-2 yoga blankets, towels or regular blankets. If she has a yoga mat she can use that, too.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
I teach secondary students with learning disabilities, Autism and ADHD, as well as, yoga to students middle school through adult. I have MAs in Special Education and School Counseling, an Ed.D. in Educational Psychology and am a 200 hour Certified Yoga Teacher. I love to share my passion in these areas with students of all ages!
