First Paideia Seminar a Success!

Over the last two weeks, students participated in our first school-wide seminar titled “Yoga Poses”.  The ideas and values of strength, balance, control, cooperation, and unity were discussed.  For the post seminar activity, students worked together to plan and create a group yoga pose.  Ask your child about this interactive and engaging learning experience!

Yoga Club

Starting this Wednesday, so sign up SOON! Life can be stressful and change can be challenging at any age.

So let’s come together this Fall for a weekly kids yoga club full of active, playful movement to reset our energy, calming breath to melt stress away, and mindful activities to practice focus and present-moment awareness. Your kids will love the yoga poses, energetic games, fitness challenges, and moments of connection. You’ll love the introduction to yoga philosophy and skills that they can access and grow their entire life.
