Rise and Shine Yoga

Yoga club is so much fun!! We listened to a relaxing meditation this week called The Golden Waterfall, by Shakta Khalsa.  It was awesome, some students were able to totally relax and even fell asleep! Next week, Mrs. Richards will lead us in a Vinyasa Yoga class.  I can't wait!

Rise and Shine YOga

It was a great first week!

Rise and Shine Yoga

WOW!!!! Before I could even post that registration for Rise and Shine Yoga was open for the spring session, the course closed because it is FULL!!!! Wahe Guru!! I think this is the fastest a session has ever closed so quickly due to capacity, and this is the 10th session of yoga that I have offered for public school children over the past 4 years.  This AFFIRMS for me something we all know; KIDS WANT YOGA, KIDS NEED YOGA!!! As Shakta, my teacher and mentor always says, "children are big souls in small bodies, listen to them, they know what they need." Yes, they certainly do. :)  It is going to be a great spring!

Last Yoga....For Now

For our last club meeting, the students demonstrated their favorite exercise, asana or mudra.  We took some videos of the students discussing how yoga has impacted their lives and what is important about yoga to each of them.  Check out the playlist at the end of the post! :) I'm looking forward to seeing all of these yogis back in the spring. Wahe Guru! Sat Nam!

Partner Yoga!  Fun!! RCY club members use what they learn in yoga class to help them throughout the school day and in life.  Yoga in the public school going strong! :)
