I couldn't be more excited for her to work with us- she has a great background working with children (a degree in Early Childhood Education, yoga instructor of the kid's yoga class at Darling Yoga, and works with many childcare programs offering children's yoga classes). She has a beautiful plan designed for our little ones to work on poses, breathing, peace, patience, stability, and handling emotions. She will send home a note to parents each week to outline what we worked on so that parents can continue the techniques at home.
My goal is that through practicing yoga the children will be able to handle the emotions they feel but can't quite express yet. Instead of using a "time-out" to punish our children for any behavioral mishaps they will get the opportunity to relax in the quiet area and encouraged to practice some of the poses and breathing taught to them by Joy.
I am just SO happy to get to do this with our children!
