Program Description
This program introduces basic yoga poses to students. In the lower grades, yoga is introduced through stories, games and creative movement. Students learn new ways to strengthen and stretch their bodies. For older students, the benefits of yoga and mindfulness are explained through a power point describing how the brain reacts to stress and relaxation. Yoga poses, breathing, mindfulness activities, creative movement and relaxation techniques are taught so that students can incorporate these new skills into their daily experiences to help control and reduce stress and anxiety. Students increase their body awareness, enhance their well-being, and learn techniques to manage stress. A full day consists of up to six sessions.
