Summary
In my yoga classes, I really value each student listening to their body and only doing what serves them individually. I encourage connecting movement with breath, as well as moving intuitively through different postures. I have experience working with children in a teaching environment from my years as a dance instructor. Sharing yoga with children will allow them to create positive habits at a young age that will last a lifetime.
