WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF FREE TO B.E. CLASSES, AND WORKSHOPS?

Our children’s classes provide innovative, creative and fun educational experiences for children and young adults. Incorporating the principles and practices of Hatha Yoga and Brain Education we engage the whole child, body, mind and spirit, to guide them in building greater self awareness and self confidence.  Through Hatha Yoga practices, children improve flexibility, strengthen their bodies, improve health, learn proper breathing techniques and learn how to deeply relax their body & mind.  Through Brain Education, children learn through mastering our brains we can master our lives. Neuroplasticity demonstrates that through physical, emotional and cognitive exercises we can help children change the way they use their brain to improve focus, confidence, emotional well-being, academic and social achievement.
