Creativity sustains innovation in the arts, sciences, and beyond. It only takes a single thought to spark the imagination of a lifetime and allow new ideas to come to fruition


An essential aspect to creativity is play as an opportunity for children and adults to explore logical thinking, reasoning skills, and emotions. In this workshop, we’ll use our imaginations to tell a story as we move, stretch, and awaken the body. With playful prompts and visualization, Exploring Creative Movement will help you explore mindful movement as a family. 

Children Yoga + Mindfulness
Practicing yoga and mindfulness with children supports their growing ability to identify feelings and emotions, as well as manage their reactions in healthy ways that work best for them. Stretching or breathing practices help to re-center our attention on the present, and children are offered the opportunity to begin building the capacity to self-soothe and regulate. Together we’ll explore our range of motion, experience new ways to use our bodies, and most importantly, have fun in the process.
