Creative Movement and Yoga

Creative Movement and Yoga is a positive, reflective movement environment! This class is geared toward children ages 7 through 12 to introduce and practice critical thinking skills, use of imagination, and to develop a healthy sense of self! In class, movers dance with an improvisational musician, visual art, and movement props to elicit a wide range of movement and sound sculptures.

Creative Movement & Yoga gives an opportunity to engage bodies, minds and spirits in a creative, yet structured atmosphere. Students learn sharp focus while tapping into their imaginations to explore imagery and metaphor. Through dance, music, and visual art, students explore ways of knowing and making meaning in their lives. In community and individually, each mover uses their body as a tool to better understand themselves, our community, and the world around them.
