Our Teen Yoga Leadership program is designed for tweens and teens. This program will help participants feel more confident while working in a positive, co-operative environment. Participants gain more control over their bodies, as they learn to move through yoga postures and use breathing techniques. They will also learn how to use mindfulness and meditation to reduce stress and promote relaxation. This is a learning and leadership based program with a curriculum that highlights yoga’s physical practice, as well its history and philosophy.
The program is divided into eight 8-week sessions. Participants can start at the beginning of any session. Sessions will be offered throughout the year, so that participants can complete the entire program if they choose. Program can also be taught in a school environment.
