KID’S YOGA & ARTS SUMMER CAMP with Thereza Howling

Kids Yoga Camp is a fun and creative approach to yoga that can be very helpful for children whose bodies are still developing. In this fun and exciting camp, we use animated poses and basic stretching exercises to promote strength, flexibility, coordination and body awareness. We will combine yoga poses with games, partner work, and stories! Kids need the experiences of learned breathing and visualization techniques that will encourage the them to focus, relax and develop self-control.

During our Kids Yoga Camps, we will also be doing craft projects to remind the kids of inner peace, even when they are out of the yoga studio in the real world. Hands on experiences that help develop the skills of our young yogis assist parents in their job of enriching the world of their children to benefit the family, school, friends, neighbors, and world around us for years

to come.

BREATHING CIRCLE with Rebecca Pitzer

At the heart of yoga lies the formal practice of Pranayama, or breath control. It holds a mysterious power that can soothe a tired body or wild mind. The vital force circulating through us, known as prana, can be channeled and cultivated through many different breathing exercises. So join Rebecca for an evening of transformational breathing. She'll guide you through a 2-part breathing technique that invites a meditative state of calm and relaxation. The mind and body are given the space to let go and release stress, anxiety and fear, essentially healing the mind and body from the inside out.

Be sure to bring a yoga mat, this practice is done lying down, and an eye pillow if you use one.

Date: July 28
Time: 7:00pm-8:30pm
Preregister: $25, after 7/14 $30
