HOW IS YOUR CLASS STRUCTURED? Breathing and Mindfulness tools (10 minutes) Vinyasa & Restorative Practice (30 minutes) Class Close Out (5 minutes) HOW WILL YOU TEACH? Our classes will always include open discussion on what students are currently feeling along with an intro of our daily theme. Students will then be introduced to a grounding, breathing, and/or meditation technique that will compliment our daily Asana (pose) practice to follow. Students sharing their insights throughout their time in class is optional but highly encouraged. WHAT'S YOUR TEACHING STYLE? My classes are taught in a manner that creates a safe space for students to try new wellness tools to become present with themselves and execute the physical practice of yoga. Practicing and learning what meditation is and how to breathe is an exciting opportunity for students to use their imaginations and get creative. I welcome my students with respect and enthusiasm in trying new poses each class. The asana (poses) will always be taught in a manner that all levels will feel comfortable to have fun, grow, and challenge themselves at a pace that suites their individual needs and any physical limitations. Modifications are offered throughout class. HOW MUCH WILL LEARNERS GET TO INTERACT WITH YOU AND EACH OTHER? Students will be presented with the opportunity to share their insights from their experiences from trying the meditation tools and breathing tools. The class as a whole is an opportunity to become emotionally, physically, and mentally stronger as an individual and as a class community. ANY REQUIRED EXPERIENCE OR KNOWLEDGE? No prior knowledge or experience. Just an open mind and willingness to try new things. :)
Metas de aprendizaje
Students will learn ways to observe their thoughts with compassion and non-judgement, practice self-awareness and reflection, along with Vinyasa and Restorative yoga practice to create their own personal go-to toolbox for days that feel overwhelming or to get out some extra energy.

Orientación para padres
Hi Parents! This class is a great opportunity to create conversation and build trust with your child. I strongly encourage you to check-in with your student and see how their daily wellness tools are helping them or to share their experiences. I also invite you to encourage them to teach you some of the tools they learn in class. This empowers your students confidence of using their voice and strengthens your trust in your relationship. Don't be discouraged if they don't want to the first couple of times you ask! You showing interest is also a expressing to your student that you care for and admire the inner work they are doing for themselves.
