Empowering Minds and Body

Each class will be a combination of mindfulness techniques and beSati (an empowering kids fitness program). We will engage in lessons and take steps to improve focus and concentration, increase self-awareness, reduce stress, and develop empathy. We’ll practice basic mindfulness techniques and reflect on them and how they can benefit our daily life. Then students will be guided to an understanding about choosing their thoughts, words and actions to generate a positive state of being through breathing, uplifting movements, and the use of warrior words. Each day will end with a challenge to take positive action. Ages 6-13.
