Learn how to share the magic of mindful movement with youth, and help students grow to be the best versions of themselves, cognitively, physically, and emotionally. Harlem Yoga Studio has been committed to being a space where the WHOLE family is welcome and thrives. After working with families for 10 years and a wonderful first round, we are thrilled to announce our second Kids Yoga Training based on our experience working with kids, and the expressed needs of families and schools.

Wanting to try yoga but not ready to jump into a group class? This introductory workshop will help new students feel comfortable and confident to begin their yoga practice. Yoga is for everyone! This includes all body-types and ages. This workshop will help students learn basic alignment that can be applied to every yoga pose including, injury management and modifications. We will also introduce the anatomy of breathing, connecting our breath and movement, and provide simple breathing exercises that can be used anywhere. The flow will be conversational, the pace chill, with opportunities to ask questions and quell fears. No prior yoga experience needed. Come wearing loose fitting, comfortable clothing (layers are recommended). Please try not to eat or drink at least one hour before start time and plan on hydrating after class, not during. Mats and props will be provided.

Join us for a monthly introspective sound bath offering vibrational soundscapes created for contemplation and in depth leisure. 

“How can I use yoga to help with my back pain?” Come release, relax, and renew your back with Restorative Yoga!!! A great way to let go of tension, holding, and stress. We will begin with breathing techniques to ease abdominal muscles, which help support the lower back and can cause pain when tight. Then we will use blocks, bolsters, and blankets to gently hold our bodies in supine, lying on the mat, yoga poses. Long and cozy holds will allow our bodies to release more deeply through feeling safe and supported. All Practitioners Welcome!! Teach your body when to be active and when to relax to increase performance, reduce stress, and heal.

Teaching chair yoga can be fun, creative and rewarding! This training will empower you to bring yoga to new populations, including seniors, office workers, and people living with differing physical abilities. Learn to create sequences that are accessible yet challenging, teach mixed-level classes, and use the chair as a prop in creative ways. Lucia has been teaching chair yoga for over five years, and is passionate about sharing the practice with all.
