Katie's Kids Yoga will come to your School, Aftercare Program, Co-ops, Home School Programs, Physical Education Classes or any School Special Event. We also provide classes in libraries, community centers and recreational centers as part of after care programs or day programs. Our Classes help to increase student's capacity to increase focus, imagination, empowerment, balance, flexibility, creativity, determination, regulate behavior, and cultivate self-awareness. The heart of this program is to teach children to project rather than suppress, their emotions and teach them how to understand their feelings, process their feelings and manage stress and anxiety through our specialized techniques in combination with yoga, and mindfulness.
