A message from the founder of YES YOGA…
Parents! I am excited to announce our 2024/25 afterschool program. YES Yoga Afterschool is an innovative program that combines arts based learning, creative play and mindfulness for our school age learners. Registration is underway and we’ve started to fill our seats.
As a parent to two children, I know how important it is to find a program you can trust to nurture your child. My daughter always had a hard time focusing in school and I received plenty of calls about her behavior through the years! Through my experience as a Teaching Artist and work with trauma informed care- I know just how impactful the environment can be. I wanted to create a space that truly supported the emotional diversity of our children. YES Yoga is focused on the five pillars of citizenship:
Self Awareness
Safe Communication
Empathy
Compassion
Acceptance
Every aspect of our day will be focused on cultivating and expanding these skills. Everyday we focus on a new activity and always have an element of free play. Our Group Leaders are incredibly caring and nurturing beings that love working with children. We’re all excited about this coming year and can’t wait to learn more about your kiddo!
