Elementary Yoga Workshop
Playful Poses for littles ages 5-9
Let your child stretch, breathe, and move in a fun and supportive environment designed just for them. Elementary Yoga is a 90-minute workshop tailored specifically for elementary-aged children (ages 6–11). Through playful movement, age appropriate yoga poses, breathing exercises, and mindfulness games, kids will build strength, flexibility, balance, and focus all while having a fun time.
This workshop encourages creativity, confidence, and body awareness, helping kids develop healthy habits they can take off the mat and into their daily lives. Led by experienced instructors, Susan Comfort and Sonja Johnson, who specialize in teaching children's yoga, the session is designed to be active, engaging, and relaxing all at once.
Please note: This is a kids-only class.
Perfect for both beginners and returning young yogis. No prior experience needed! Mats and props are provided, but please feel free to bring your own.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
Follow the Wheel of the Year with seasonal forest bathing
sessions in Rock Creek Park. Shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing, is a
Japanese wellness practice that helps individuals access the
healing properties of nature. These can be especially powerful
during the times of transition offered by the changing seasons.
Each walk will follow a different route, but all will allow us to
experience this familiar landscape at
different times of the year. You will be invited to slow down, to
be curious, and to touch, smell, hear, and see nature more fully.
The walks will not be strenuous but requires the ability to walk a
mile or so on uneven surfaces.
