Changing education through the practice of yoga

Yoga Ed. is a national and international program written by teachers for teachers and substantial empirical evidence shows that the Yoga Ed. curriculum and lessons help support brain growth and development, reduce stress and anxiety, increase cardiovascular and respiratory health, and improve sleep quality.  Students achieve greater academic success and higher GPA’s! (Slovak Study 2003) The curriculum and lesson plans are aligned with the National P.E. Standards.

Empowering teachers with tools that will effectively change student self-awareness, focus and confidence is one of the most rewarding experiences of my teaching career.

Time and time again I have witnessed even the most withdrawn or recalcitrant child self-regulate behavior by using the 4 Yoga tools of breath, poses, game or partner poses and relaxation.
