What To Expect
Children age 5-10 have fun and learn in classes led by graduate-level Counseling Students specializing in child development.
Classes begin with mindful movement including mindful walks and/or yoga play so we can shake our sillies out! Children then participate in a mindful craft with a developmentally appropriate theme of the day to help children identify emotions and a sense of self and/or learn effective communication. We wrap up class with yoga story time to peacefully settle into the rest of the day.
