Luna Girls: A Yoga Group for Young Ladies
Become a part of a community of girls building life-long skills for a well-balanced, happy, healthy life - inside and out! We provide a safe, non-competitive space for girls ages 9 - 13 to express themselves through movement, connect with their creative energy flow, and appreciate their own unique place in the world. Each class includes a yoga asana practice – learning the foundation poses of this traditional practice, and trying out some of the more challenging poses that keep our practice playful and fun. We take time to discuss the Yoga Principles and learn how to apply them to our own lives, in the yoga studio and beyond. We learn valuable techniques for meditation, stress relief, and relaxation that help us face the emotional, physical, and social changes that come with being a tween.
