Yoga for Teens

Instructor: Vickie McLane

The timeless art of Yoga brings teens the opportunity to acquire new skills that may ease their transition from childhood to becoming adults.

The breath-work and centering sequences practiced at the beginning of class provide tools that can be taken out into the real world where they may serve as a buffer for peer pressure. The physical postures, called asanas, create physical strength and confidence while relieving mental stress and toxins from the internal organs. Meditation at the end of class allows teens some constructive “me” time as they explore the depths of consciousness.

Ages 16-19 Wednesdays 2:30 pm – 10 week session
