Teenage Summer Yoga Immersion
starts Tuesday 16 july 2024 at 17:00
This yoga immersion is designed for 13-16 year-olds. Taught in English and French by Diana, it focuses on postural practice and mindfulness. There will be yoga practice with theory and anatomy as well as working in pairs and individual reflection.
The program includes:
- Postural practice (with daily themes)
- Breathing techniques
- Mindfulness time
- Relaxation time
- Working in pairs
- Personal journal + journaling time
In addition to the yoga postures which stretch and strengthen muscles and connective tissues to make the body more adept and less likely for injury, the breathing exercises and mindfulness will help increase academic performance, deepen trusting relationships, reduce stress, and create harmony at school. The experience of these programs will enhance concentration in the classroom, self-esteem, respect for others as well as the ability to relax completely.
Teenagers from 17-19 can participate in our other summer courses with a 10% discount. (Email to apply discount.)
