Yin yoga is a slow-paced, meditative style of yoga that focuses on holding floor-based poses for extended periods, typically 3-5 minutes, to target connective tissues like fascia, ligaments, and joints. It's a practice that emphasizes stillness, breath awareness, and deep relaxation to release tension and improve flexibility.

Unlock the potential within your child with the transformative Inside Out Program. Designed to equip children with essential emotional intelligence skills, this comprehensive curriculum guides them through the exploration of six main emotions and provides invaluable self-regulation tools for constructive emotional management. By fostering a supportive environment where teachers and assistants actively participate in each lesson, we ensure seamless integration of learning throughout the month, allowing the knowledge to truly take root in the hearts and minds of the children.

JOY: Embracing Happiness

In this module, children embark on a journey of self-discovery as they learn to identify their own "happy islands" and explore the things that bring them joy in life. Through a guided process during meditation, they create their own personalized happy islands, a safe haven to retreat to when their joy is disrupted. We encourage teachers to make space for these visits during the day, providing a calming refuge for unsettled children or a rejuvenating break for those returning from high energy environments.

FEAR: Conquering the Unknown

Navigating fear can be challenging, especially in new situations. I guide you and your child through the experience of a first day at a new school, teaching them the importance of regularly checking in with themselves. By developing an inner strength comparable to a mountain, children become their own superheroes, realizing that fear often arises from concerns about the future or regrets from the past. Emphasizing the power of living in the present moment, the children gain a profound sense of control over their emotions.

SADNESS: Embracing Emotional Resilience

Sadness knocks at our door until it is acknowledged. Through this module, children learn various techniques to navigate sadness effectively:

Breathing exercises to bring inner calm

Stretching to release tension from the body

Engaging in enjoyable activities to uplift their spirits

Cultivating gratitude by focusing on things they are thankful for

We introduce the concept of affirmations, empowering children to shift their perspective through the lens of gratitude.

ANGER: Harnessing Inner Strength

A powerhouse of emotion, anger can overwhelm young minds. Our program equips children with the tools to recognize anger and understand its impact on their bodies. They also learn effective anger release techniques, including the use of a Glitter Jar, various exercises and breath that helps anger settle. Teachers are encouraged to create Glitter Jars as a project, fostering a tangible connection between the lesson and the child's experience.

DISGUST: Embracing Empathy and Respect

This module challenges children to shift their perception of disgust through a thought-provoking analogy: broccoli as a tree. By encouraging a change in perspective, children develop respect for others' differences and ways of being. As an exciting addition, yoga against the wall is introduced, providing a playful and engaging means for children to practice respect by finding support in poses they may initially dislike or have disgust for.

COURAGE: Embodying Emotional Strength

Building upon their newfound understanding of emotions, children begin to recognize their own courage in showing up on the mat and exploring their emotional landscape. They learn to listen to their emotions and apply various methods to handle them in a healthy way.

Each lesson seamlessly integrates breath work, movement, and meditation, culminating in a holistic approach to emotional well-being. Each class is a full hour with discussion time built in to really incorporate what is happening in their lives real time.
