Yoga is an effective way to help teens cope with the uncertainties of these times, release their inner worry, and be supported at the profound level of spirit.

The world is a little tougher to grow up in these days.
 

The teen years are known to be riddled with insecurity about their changing bodies, stressful schedules, peer pressure, societal pressures, and familial pressure; all while trying to figure out who they really are.

Add a pandemic, extreme divisive politics, and the rapid evolution of technology, it’s sadly not surprising we have a mental health crisis happening in this country with teens leading the numbers on anxiety, depression, and suicide. 

Yoga is an effective way to help teens cope with the uncertainties of these times, release their inner worry, and be supported at the profound level of spirit. 

Yoga helps to cultivate our authentic self.

The practice of yoga offers adolescents a discipline for discovering who they truly are and who they want to be in the world. Beginning that process at a young age can shape who a teen becomes.

Ultimately, the regular practice of yoga will help teens:

​

• Have a sharper sense of concentration and focus

• Relax for a good night's sleep 

• Increase memory

• Boost immune system

• Improve creativity

• Enhance and stabilize moods

In this seven week session your child will gain a deeper sense of who they are at a “soul-ular” level. Each class will consist of the following teachings and practice:

• Chakras - an understanding of the various energies that give us our human experience 

• Pranayama -  breath techniques

• Asanas - movement

• Meditation - the practice of neutrality 

• Mantra - sanskrit sounds that enliven the mind

• Gem Stones - each class will have a mini-lesson of a specific gem stone that your child will use in mediative practice
