Calming Connections (Yoga for 5-10 year olds) - November/December (Term 4 2024)

What's it all about?

Yoga is a practice that flows from mat to life, offering connection to mind, body and breath to enhance adaptability within life.

Calming Connections welcomes children from Prep to Grade 4, inviting relevant adaptations to yoga practices through sound vibrations, poses, breathwork and meditation in a fun, dynamic and connective way.

The idea is to bring curiosity and practice 'tools' in how we connect with peace, calm, kind and love to the world in which we live, each other and ourselves.

Please bring your own Yoga mat, pillow and blanket for each person attending. If you do not have a Yoga mat, please bring a large towel, pillow and blanket.

Who will be teaching?

Sarah will be teaching Calming Connections.

After moving back to the Macedon Ranges in 2016, the opportunity to practice Yoga, on a personal level, unfolded for Sarah. Having passionately practiced Pilates for years, Sarah embraced the mat and Yoga teachings with a new curiosity, and quickly found that it offered a unique and calming practice, whilst providing a beautiful sense of coming home.

In 2021, having worked in the health industry for 14 years, Sarah completed the 200hr 'Teaching Training: Beginning Level' though the Integral Yoga Academy, as she felt there is much to gain from regularly practicing such a holistic offering. Sarah has since completed the Level 1 Kids Yoga Training with Yoga Kids Training Academy, with much appreciation for the fun and creativity such practice invites.

Now affiliated with Yoga Australia, Sarah is honoured to share space and passion for a practice she believes can strengthen and inspire the mind, body and soul.

Sarah will be supported by a volunteer of the Woodend Neighbourhood House.
