Youth Yoga

Designed for youth ages 11-15 years to introduce the yoga asanas, learn about the calming power of breath and practice mindful meditation in a safe, inclusive and accessible space. 

Our 4 week series will explore and introduce mindfulness practices such as pranayama (breathwork), alignment of yoga shapes (asanas), journaling (journal and pen provided) meditation and sound therapy. Each week will build upon skills learned and connect with our bodies through breath, movement and sound.
