Yoga for Children, Tweens, Teens and Families
I like to provide yoga classes that present, in a fun and creative way, the sweetness of yoga. I support the growth and connection of children and families through play, partner/group poses and lots of laughter. We also explore movement, breath, co-creation, crafts, music and any other inspiring methods that will help us be our best selves.
Yoga creates a nurturing atmosphere that helps children and families relax and have fun. Yoga also helps develop physical and emotional strength, body and breath awareness, as well as improve balance, flexibility, focus and self-confidence.

“We asked Jake what he liked about family yoga and these are the words of a five year old- Number one was Varenka- He thought you were fun and nice, number two was going on imaginary adventures and I asked what he learned from yoga and he said balance and breathing. From the adult perspective, it was a fun way to play together, let go of our inhibitions and try something new. We knew it was a great activity to be involved in when Jake asked constantly when the next class was going to be.”
