This mixed level practice which mixes hatha, kundalini and restorative yoga is appropriate for both experienced and new yogis. These classes are great for people who want to multi-task... get in a workout (stretch + strengthen) yet also relax their bodies + mind.

Yoga is a terrific experience
for children of all ages. Both physically demanding as well as mentally and
emotionally relaxing, yoga can help kids
excel in sports, focus on their homework, relieve stress (yes, kids have it
too!) and develop good social skills. Best of all, yoga encourages people to do
their best but not in a competitive way. It is suitable for all levels of
fitness and capabilities.
minds and breath though playful postures that are inspired by nature and
animals such as slithering likes snakes, standing tall like trees and
shining like the sun. We also sing lots of songs which encourages creative
movement. Even the little ones as young as 3, can lie still for a few
minutes in savasana at the end of a class which teaches them some self
soothing skills.
body awareness and self exploration. We practice flowing sequences,
balancing poses, breathing exercises and creative relaxation techniques.
Partner poses and cooperative yoga games inspire positive peer interaction for all different shapes, ages and sizes.

poses (asanas)

and relaxation exercises)

creativity, self awareness and focus.
will incorporate partner + self massage into my sessions. This is a great
way for kids to connect with their bodies. With the permission of the
child's parent I aromatherapy blends for use during the class. This extra
sensory component makes the class engaging and unique. The kids love it!
relates to yoga somehow. For example I might give out high fibre, low sugar (nut free) oatmeal cookies and make the connection between fibre in an oatmeal + why this is good for our bodies... and that part of yoga is not just stretching but about learning how to treat our bodies with honour and respect by making healthy food choices.
from 30 - 45 minutes and 45 mins - 1 hour in length,
